Steven A. Falco e8e25fd732 Launchers must specify WM_CLASS
On some Linux desktops, we get extra icons in the application dock.
This happens because the dock doesn't know the "class" of the
application.  We need to add StartupWMClass=xxx lines, where xxx is
the name associated with the application.

This patch addresses the following issue:

https://gitlab.com/kicad/packaging/kicad-ubuntu-builder/kicad-daily-package/-/issues/30

While it was written against Ubuntu, it also affects Fedora, and
probably other Linux systems too.
