A huge update to the Qt interface and a fresh new logo, apart from
that just the regular amount of minor bugfixes.

Version 0.10.3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Released: 2016-11-01

Notes:
 * The release breaks the Qt library API. Patches to make KDE Discover
use the new API exist
   in its Git master branch, and will be available with Plasma 5.9.
   The patches will likely not enter the stable branch, so if you want
to upgrade AppStream,
   you might need to ship patches for Discover downstream to use the new API.

Features:
 * qt: Update API to reflect more recent AppStream features, be easier to
   extend and also a bit faster due to removing needless data conversions.
   (Matthias Klumpp, Aleix Pol)
 * Make components record their origin kind internally (Matthias Klumpp)
 * Provide a file:/ URL for icons when we know a file name (Matthias Klumpp)
 * Add support for Snappy/Snap bundles (Matthias Klumpp)

Specification:
 * Add new AppStream logo and button (Ken Vermette)
 * Add new AppStream logo and buttons to the docs (Matthias Klumpp)

Bugfixes:
 * ascli: When converting, always include all translations (Matthias Klumpp)
 * Match .desktop files and metainfo data properly if ID is lacking
.desktop suffix (Matthias Klumpp)
