Bug Description

[Impact]
Older versions of Ubuntu are running older versions of snapd-glib. There have since been bug fixes and support for newer API that was added to snapd since release.

[Test Case]
1. Delete existing Snap credentials by deleting keys com.ubuntu.UbuntuOne.GnomeSoftware in Seahorse.
2. Start GNOME Software
3. Install a snap (e.g. moon-buggy)

Expected result:
User is prompted for Ubuntu credentials and is able to install snap.

Observed result:
Works as expected (i.e. only looking for regressions).

[Regression Potential]
There is a risk of breaking existing use cases. This is reduced by the regression tests in the package and the newer versions of snapd-glib working in newer releases.

The Ubuntu MATE team are adding snap support to the Software Boutique with the assistance of Robert Ancell. Everything works correctly on Ubuntu MATE 17.10 daily but we encounter various issues on 16.04, such as snap installs timing out part way through and not reporting the correct snap status.

We've built snapd-glib 1.13 in a PPA for 16.04 and it resolves all the issues we've encountered.

This should also fix the Polkit prompts being wrongly translated (bug 1700764).
