gnome-session-properties doesn't recognize Ubuntu session as GNOME

[Jeremy Bícha]

From a clean Ubuntu 17.10 install, open Startup Applications.

"SSH Key Agent" should show up but "Print Queue Applet" should not.

/etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-ssh.desktop has OnlyShowIn=GNOME;Unity;MATE;
/etc/xdg/autostart/print-applet.desktop has NotShowIn=KDE;GNOME;Cinnamon;LXDE;Unity;

XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP is set to ubuntu:GNOME.

I believe we'll need to rewrite the gsp_key_file_get_shown function in revert_remove_gnome_session_properties.patch.

Other Info
==========
Generally, Startup Applications should be empty in a new install. An exception was made for gnome-keying's ssh agent since that is apparently a popular thing to disable and there is no other GUI way to disable it in the default Ubuntu install.

---------------
gnome-session (3.26.1-0ubuntu2) artful; urgency=medium

gnome-session (3.26.1-0ubuntu1) artful; urgency=medium

  [ Marco Trevisan ]
  * Remove scale factor reset in migration script as now handled in the unity
    settings package and only impact people migrating with unity installed
    (LP: #1721082)

  [ Didier Roche ]
  * New upstream release
  * debian/unity-gnome-shell-migration.17.10.py:
    - reset the rhythmbox plugins key and rename the migration script for
      people who installed pre-alpha getting the glib fix where some
      applications weren't supporting the per session override.
      (LP: #1720754)
