menu: Relax main category requirements
The list of Main Categories does not provide a complete ontology for application categorisation. A very large number of applications (e.g. specialist scientific and engineering applications) have therefore been unable to list one of the existing Main Categories in their .desktop files, leading to nonconformance with this specification. This patch relaxes the requirement to list at least one Main Category in conformant .desktop files. This permits conformant .desktop files to be written for applications that do not fit into the existing Main Category ontology. See also: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.freedesktop.xdg/12770
