Only show apps in list that actually log

[Cris Dywan]

The list of apps shows a whole lot of things that don't log, for example Calculator, htop, Mahjong, D-Feet... I think it would be convenient to only show those apps that actually log to zeitgeist.

I think we can get the list from dataaource registery.

One question in such case would be "what to do for files logged via
datahub"?

The data-source registry correlates to data-sources, but not
necessarily to applications. The way to go here is asking for events
with an *Actor ResultType.

It'd still show all applications though, and just show the ones for
which events exist at the top.
