gnome-disk-image-mounter.desktop appears in Other menu category

[Dylan McCall]

gnome-disk-utility installs gnome-disk-image-mounter.desktop, which seems to be primarily intended as a handler for .iso files. The application is visible as "Disk Image Mounter" in any application menu, including the Unity Dash and GNOME Shell's Applications list. However, it is not well placed: it ends up in the Other category, and it is the only application included out of the box to do this. This happens because the .desktop file does not list any categories. Instead, the file should include a Categories field with some reasonable values.
