[gnome-software/wip/hughsie/cachekey2: 214/216] Allow plugins to subclass GsApp

[Richard Hughes <rhughes src gnome org>]

commit 5eb67c4ccf85b829cee13c26a1d34d8f795b5e13

    Allow plugins to subclass GsApp
    
    This allows us make the storing of metadata more efficient, and also allows us
    to use custom _to_string() functions for the types.
    
    NOTE: We have to be a bit careful when creating GsApp objects in modules outside
    of the plugin -- for instance GsAppstream.c needs to use gs_plugin_app_new()
    rather than gs_app_new() so the correct type gets used. Simlarly, plugins need
    to implement gs_plugin_create_app() if they are defining a custom GType.
