Title:
  Need more information from account manager

Status in webapps-sprint:
  Fix Released
Status in online-accounts-api package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  For storage framework, we need to be able to present the user with a
  selection dialog that allows the user to select a cloud service
  account, for example, to select where backups should be stored, or
  where the camera app should upload photos to.

  Right now, we only get three values from online accounts:

  id (integer)
  service id (e.g. “google-drive-scope”)
  display name (e.g. “michi.henning@xxxxxxxxxxxxx”)

  This isn’t quite sufficient for what applications need. In particular,
  they need a (translated) display string that identifies the service
  (e.g. “Google”, “Dropbox”), and they need the icon identifier.

  Without these things, it’s not possible to present a decent selection
  dialog, and it’s not possible to reliably distinguish accounts, such
  as when a user has more than one account with the same service, or has
  accounts with different services but the same email address.

  Could you please add the following to the account information
  dictionary:

  - provider ID
  - translated provider name
  - icon name
