[packagekit] Generate PkPackageId's from a list of the items

[Tom Parker]

Currently, in order to generate a package id, we've either got the
option of generating a package id from the component items (name,
version, etc) or we can use a generated string to make a PkPackageId.
Me, I'd like to take a bunch of the component items, and generate a
PkPackageId. This *can* be done right now by feeding the output of
pk_package_id_to_string into pk_package_id_new_from_string, but it's
inefficient. Therefore, I've attached a patch to this email for
pk_package_id_new_from_list, which takes component items and builds a
PkPackageId.

Can I commit this?
