Hamster indicator requires python-appindicator but does not depend on it

[Shaform]

[ Impact ]

Simply installing hamster-indicator may render it unusable due to missing dependencies.

Hamster indicator requires python-appindicator but does not depend on it.

Fix is to add python-appindicator dependency.

[ Test Case ]

Make sure python-appindicator is not installed.

Install & launch hamster-indicator, notice that it crashes / doesn't start.

Install updated hamster-indicator, verify that it pulls in python-appindicator dependency. Try launching hamster-indicator and observe that it just works as expected.
