[gnome-software/wip/mak/swcatalog] Find AppStream metadata in every possible location

[Matthias Klumpp <mak src gnome org>]

commit 0d6309816501fefb92be749e776e7d738132e458
Author: Matthias Klumpp <matthias tenstral net>
Date:   Fri Feb 25 03:02:15 2022 +0100

    Find AppStream metadata in every possible location
    
    AppStream Metadata can currently be found in:
    Modern:
     MetaInfo data:
      /usr/share/metainfo
     Catalog Data:
      /usr/share/swcatalog/(xml|yaml)
      /var/(lib|cache)/swcatalog/(xml|yaml)
    
    Legacy:
     MetaInfo Data:
      /usr/share/appdata
     Catalog Data:
      /usr/share/app-info/(xml|xmls|yaml)
      /var/(lib|cache)/app-info/(xml|xmls|yaml)
    
    With this patch, we search them all, and don't monitor any locations
    that have a compatibility symlink.
