François-Simon Fauteux-Chapleau 49d83fd937 packaging: fix AppStream issues
The AppStream specification includes both a "metainfo" file format,
which can be used (among other things) to provide metadata about a
specific application, as well as a "catalog" file format used to provide
information about the contents of a repository. This patch adds a
"catalog" file for the Jami repos, which seems to be necessary in order
for some graphical package management applications to be able to launch
or uninstall Jami. In particular, this was an issue with GNOME Software
on all the rpm-based distributions supported by Jami (Fedora, openSUSE,
AlmaLinux).

This patch also fixes a few minor noncompliance issues with the existing
metainfo and .desktop files:

- the metainfo and .desktop files were renamed so that the names'
  prefixes match the application's ID as defined by the <id> tag in the
  metainfo file (in our case "net.jami.Jami") [1];

- the <br/> tags in the metainfo file were removed (they are not
  supported -- metainfo files only allow a very limited number of tags,
  not arbitrary html [2]); the list (<ul>) and list item (<li>) tags are
  now used instead;

- the invalid categories "Communication" and "Productivity" were removed
  [3, 4].
