gapplication: add a way to override the app-id

Desktop / GNOME / GLib - Lars Uebernickel [canonical.com] - 18 February 2016 07:18 UTC

Some applications support running in a mode where they present themselves as a different application to the user (for example web browsers or terminals).

To facilitate this, add an option --gapplication-app-id which allows users to override an application's id from desktop files or similar.

Applications need to opt-in to this by setting the G_APPLICATION_CAN_OVERRIDE_APP_ID flag.
