[Bug 1652419] [NEW] hdhomerun-config-gui missing from Software app

 

Public bug reported:

Impact
======
hdhomerun-config-gui does not show up in the Software app in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS or 16.10.

This is fixed by using .png icons and getting rid of the .xpm icon.

https://wiki.debian.org/AppStream/Guidelines#Icon_best_practices

This update also adds more icons at higher resolutions and uses a better
looking icon from the OSX folder instead of from the WIN folder in the
source.

Finally, the .desktop title is changed from "HDHomeRun Config GUI" to
"HDHomeRun Config" to match the app window title.

Test Case
=========
Install the updated hdhomerun-config-gui
Look for it in the Software app.

Note that it takes a day or two after publishing for the appstream
metadata to be updated.

Regression Potential
====================
It might be confusing to users to have the icon suddenly change. However I think the new icon looks a lot better.
