[SailfishDevel] Update on application naming for Harbour applications

[Artem Marchenko]

What if there are two packages in app store named harbour-videocam?
Or whoever grabs the name first keeps it?

What about the main app binary name and it's data folder?
Shall they be harbour-videocam or com.supercell.videocam? Or
harbour-com.supercell.videocam?

Cheers,
Artem.
