app-arch/file-roller desktop file

The apostles of perfection, a.k.a GNOME desktop developers, with their infinite wisdom had deiced to block some desktop environments from showing some of their awesome applications.
One of such problems is file-roller.
It installs a desktop file that contains the line 286, which reads: "NotShowIn=KDE;".

I propose that we delete those blockers from desktop applications unless somehow they seriously break a desktop.
This one doesn't, so please remove the lines with "NotShowIn" in src_install or other phase.

This went nowhere and also I'm not interested in file-roller anymore, closing.
