Rework to use systemd for app enumerationneedlefish_13.93.0needlefish/13.93.0lamprey_12.1.6lamprey_12.1.5lamprey/12.1.6lamprey/12.1.513.93.012.1.612.1.5
Rework to replace the Glib .desktop file based app enumeration
scheme with querying systemd for units matching the pattern
agl-app*@*.service and parsing out the application ID from the
unit instance name. At the moment this assumes the use of template
units, but that could be changed to open up using non-templated
units if desired. Application icons are now assumed to be named
with the application ID, and the systemd unit file "Description"
field is read and used as the application display name. This
avoids needing metadata outside of the systemd unit files.
