[Merge] lp:~mterry/update-manager/group-by-applications into lp:update-manager

[Michael Terry]

The proposal to merge lp:~mterry/update-manager/group-by-applications into lp:update-manager has been updated.

Description changed to:

This is a continuation of https://code.launchpad.net/~dylanmccall/update-manager/group-by-applications/+merge/112678

This implements the 'Available Updates' description pane in the Software Updates spec:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdates#Expanded_presentation_of_updates

Notably, it replaces the current list of packages with groups of packages and highlights the description of the package rather than the debian package name.

It also no longer categorizes the updates by source.  The only categorization it does is "security or not".

It's a big diff, I know.  Sorry.  Mostly visual changes.  And I added tests for the non-visual bits.

Test with: ./update-manager --data-dir=./data
