flatpak: Do not check for updates immediately

Aleix Pol Gonzalez requested to merge work/apol/flatpak-startup into master

flatpak: Do not check for updates immediately

Wait for a bit to check for updates, instead just show the locally available data ASAP.

flatpak: Limit the icons we attempt to download

Only offer the downloadable icon iif there's no other icons. If there's just one, then proceed to download it, store a generic icon instead. Also use the same QNAM for all of them, creating a QNAM is not that cheap as it spawns a separate thread.

What I tested:

  • Discover starts fine with --backends flatpak
  • Views don't re-fetch when starting
  • It eventually gets updates
  • Applications have an icon, including Zola and RuneScape which only offer a remote

Both should be fairly safe, I guess we could consider backporting them, at least the "Limit icons we attempt to download" one
