[Bug 1570551] [NEW] Merge plasma-discover 5.6.2-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

[Matthias Klumpp]

Public bug reported:

Please merge plasma-discover 5.6.2-1 (universe) from Debian unstable
(main)

The full Debian package can be synced to Ubuntu, but a Breaks/Replaces
against the libdiscovercommon package (which does not exist in Debian)
should be added.

Reason for merging this so late in the release cycle is that the current version in Ubuntu, 5.5.4, has a set of known bugs and does not use AppStream metadata.
Since Ubuntu is switching to GNOME Software this cycle, which uses AppStream, and the app-install-data data the old plasma-discover uses is heavily outdated, it is encouraged to update plasma-discover to use the new, up-to-date data.

Changelog entries since current xenial version 5.5.4-0ubuntu1:
