Title:
  GNOME Software has entry in Startup Applications

Status in gnome-software source package in Xenial:

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  GNOME Software shows in the startup applications list and can be disabled. This is a feature that should not be easily disabled by the user.

  [Test Case]
  1. Open Startup Applications

  Expected result:
  GNOME Software is not shown

  Observed result:
  GNOME Software is shown and can be disabled.

  [Regression Potential]
  Low - this just hides this entry.

  If a user had disabled the gnome-software service from automatically starting in the background, it will now be more difficult to re-enable it.
  rm ~/.config/autostart/gnome-software-service.desktop

  The gnome-software service is a bit heavy (LP: #1592678) so some users
  do disable it. The downside is that by disabling it, the Software app
  takes much longer to start.
