Description

Following up from https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1076340, I am requesting a Flatpak app-id change for Dolphin, so things are conformant to the spec, as this potentially affects other interactions with system components like appstream, D-Bus, etc.

As outlined by https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Metadata.html#tag-id-generic, the app-id should be

org.dolphin_emu.dolphin_emu

and a couple things should be done in Flathub to make the transition somewhat smooth: https://docs.flathub.org/docs/for-app-authors/maintenance/#renaming-the-flatpak-id

I can help with the trivial patches if that's desired, but uploading the new app to flathub for review and deprecating the old one is something I won't be able to help with evidently.

Once this is done, I'll submit a pull reuqest with the actual AppStream definitions proposed in the Debian bug report.
