appdata: Improve appdata for AppStream 1.0 #140

Closed ghost closed 4 months ago

Use appstreamcli to validate appdata
Add the <developer><name> tag
Mark the <developer_name> tag as deprecated
Mark release descriptions as untranslatable
Correct the translation and vcs-browser URLs
Correct unknown color tag errors
Remove one of Purism tag to pass appstreamcli validation
Correct double custom tag error

data: Mark release descriptions as untranslatable

GNOME automatically excludes release descriptions on Damned Lies (GNOME Translation Platform). It's a good practice to follow the GNOME way.

This can streamline the translation process, allowing translators to focus their efforts on more critical and user-facing aspects of the application.

appdata: Use appstreamcli for appdata validation

appstream-util is obsoleted by appstreamcli.

Michael Catanzaro recommended the use of appstreamcli in this comment.

He also suggest removing the purism tags completely.
