[Appstream 
metadata](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Metadata.html)
 is an xml file that allows your application to be visible to application 
stores like gnome-software (KDE discover) and really makes it easy for people 
on Linux to browse, install and now even write reviews for your app. This patch 
adds a (mostly working) appdata file and makes it known to Makefile.am. 
Comments inside the appdata file indicate where this could use some love, e.g. 
with 16:9 screenshots instead of 4:3 links taken from the geany website. The 
other info (optional) is to add the main dev's email (or whoever maintains the 
appdata file upstream) as the update_contact (also added as a comment).

Hope you find this useful. Thanks!
