Additions required to otter-browser.appdata.xml AppData files for GNOME-Software

Hi,

GNOME software used to show star ratings as *popularity* next to the application using the fedora-tagger application.
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-software/plain/doc/kudos.md

In future versions of the appstream-builder (the program used by distributions to merge all the AppData files in packages into AppStream metadata) we're going to be running a lot less crazy plugins. At the moment we're doing things like parsing .gir files, running nm on binaries and looking up things from arrays of hardcoded data just so we can try and work out what kudos the application deserves. This doesn't scale, and means the machine generating the metadata needs to have all kinds of extra build tools installed.

Can you pleas add the following data into otter-browser.appdata.xml

  <kudos>
    <kudo>HiDpiIcon</kudo>
    <kudo>ModernToolkit</kudo>
  </kudos>

Thanks MartinKG
