abstractions/ubuntu-browsers should include drop-in snippets from a directory

[intrigeri]

We're trying to maintain a complete list of all available browsers in abstractions/ubuntu-browsers. This approach has a few problems:

1. We have to update the list constantly
2. Updating the list requires an upload of the apparmor package
3. As https://bugs.debian.org/880424 shows, this is not flexible enough: there's no way we keep track of all popular browsers that are not shipped in distro

IMO abstractions/ubuntu-browsers should "#include <abstrations/some-directory.d>" and e.g. google-chrome-beta could ship its own snippet in there. Sadly ubuntu-browsers.d already exists and is used for something else but if this approach seems like a good idea to you folks, I'm happy to think about another suitable name.

Thoughts, opinions?

Yeah, in fact any abstraction (as abstractions/ubuntu-{media-players,email,bittorent-clients}) could be improved with a .d directory.

Not sure what to suggest about naming.

Maybe abstractions/include{,.d}/{browsers.d,media-plauyers.d,text-editors.d,email.d,...}

Ping. Any ideas how could this be organized?

Although even if we have these `.d` directories, there's no guarantee that third party proprietary software provides would care to place abstraction there...

I've no strong opinion about this at the moment.
