Bug Description

[Impact]
The "Featured" banner only shows hard-coded .debs that are available. This should show the currently promoted snap.

[Test Case]
1. Open GNOME Software
2. Look at featured section

Expected result:
The currently promoted snap is shown.

Observed result:
A hard-coded .deb is shown.

[Regression Potential]
The change is to use the first snap from the "featured" store section and show it here. If there is a screenshot with the name "banner" then this is used as the promotion image (and not shown in screenshots).

Is this fixed in Artful yet? For the SRU for Ubuntu 17.04 to be approved it must be.
