snapd nows exposes a xdg-settings wrapper that bridges to the outside.
However setting as the default browser now fails with the following
error:
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Failed: cannot find desktop file
"/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/chromium_chromium-browser.desktop"
snapd's xdg-settings wrapper prepends $SNAP_NAME + "_" to the desktop
file name passed as a parameter. So chromium needs to be patched to pass
"chromium.desktop" instead of "chromium-browser.desktop".
