FilePattern is deprecated, but I don't mind updating its description if
you think it's important.

We don't need a micro version because non-sustantial fixes in the
specification like typos or editorial clearifications do not have a
semantic impact and as such there is no need to differentiate between
the two spec versions in the .dsktop file.
