* Set DesktopNames back to Unity. There are many buggy components that don't
know how to deal with XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP having multiple values, and it's
too close to the release to fix them all.

Bug description:
Since being standardised XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP supports specifying
multiple Desktop Names seperated by a colon, however many of the
patches in Ubuntu pre-date this change so don't correctly support the
current format in some cases.
These days XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP will look something like
Unity
GNOME (gnome-shell)
GNOME-Classic:GNOME (gnome-shell classic mode)
GNOME-Flashback:Unity (Flashback sesison, although upstream and debian use
GNOME-Flashack:GNOME for this)
Many of the patches only check for == "Unity" or == "GNOME", so
misbehave for the latter cases in the list above.
I suspect this will be more widespread than just nautilus, but fixing
that would be a good start. Since most of this code is still Ubuntu
specific (upstream mainly use XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP for onlyShowIn etc),
probably taking the last value in the string would get the desired
result of Unity vs GNOME3 behaviour
