Title:
  [UIFe][FFe] Change application Name etc to Ubuntu Software

Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in ubuntu-docs package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  We would like to change some strings in GNOME's Software application
  to "Ubuntu Software".

  The main reason is that our users are used to the old Ubuntu Software
  Center and many docs talk about it.  By changing the name to Ubuntu
  Software we can offer some assurances that it's the right tool for the
  job.  Our patches also make Software on Ubuntu very Ubuntu centric.

  It is not the intention to claim Software as our own work.

  .desktop "Name=" changes to "Ubuntu Software"
  Window title changes to "Ubuntu Software"
  Icon changes to the u-s-c icon
  having a binary named "ubuntu-software" for naming consistancy

  I have reached out to the upstream project and we've agreed that these
  changes can go ahead.
