[AppStream] AppStream Generator 0.8.0 released!

[Matthias Klumpp]

Hello!
This release of appstream-generator first and foremost contains
support for newer AppStream releases, so if your validator results
seemed to look odd to you (with some information missing), upgrading
to the latest version is a good idea.
Additionally the new release supports the new <video/> tag for videos
in screenshots if the `ffprobe` binary from the FFmpeg project is
found. You can influence how the generator handles videos by changing
the documented configuration flags.
Cheers,
    Matthias
