[RFC][PATCH] netsurf.desktop

I started writing a .desktop file then I noticed there was one in debian/...

Seeing what epiphany and iceweasel have in theirs, I'd suggest the
following patch:
- add WebBrowser (it is one) and GTK (it uses it) categories, like epiphany.
- add the URL schemes as fake MIME types, as both do.

BTW, I do also have a
/usr/share/applications/epiphany-newtab.desktop
here, which opens urls in a new tab on the current window.
Not sure which changes would be needed to have NS tell an existing
instance to add a tab in the GTK code though.

François.
