snap: Use ODRS for reviews

Robert Ancell requested to merge robert.ancell/gnome-software:snap-odrs into master

This patch makes Snaps reviewable in ODRS. It uses the snap ID as the key, so this shouldn't collide with any existing AppStream IDs. @hughsie and I have discussed this in theory in the past, and this shows how it could work.

As an example I've made one review for the moon-buggy snap (ODRS app_id 2kkitQurgOkL3foImG4wDwn9CIANuHlt).

When we are able to get AppStream IDs for snaps [1] we can use that instead for those snaps that have them (not all snaps will). In that case we can either:

  • Have GNOME Software request reviews for both the Snap ID and AppStream ID.
  • Migrate the reviews over in the ODRS database
  • Forget about the old reviews
