Please unblock package synaptic

As discussed in #818366

I'd like to ask RT to unblock this NMU. It adds both console and GUI warning
to user who want to run synaptic as root on Wayland.

Full changelog is:

 * Non-maintainer upload.
 * configure.in: Miss bumping version str to 0.84.5.
 * synaptic-pkexec: Do not use pkexec under Wayland; warn users instead.
 * gsynaptic: Show possible reason when failed to init gtk

debdiff is in attachment, and can also be viewed at:

https://github.com/mvo5/synaptic/pull/39

I'll only upload after ack, and downgrade the severity of #818366.

unblock synaptic/0.84.5+nmu1

It would be great if ^^ mistake could be fixed in the next upload. But
other than that, I have unblocked this version.
