Package listings on the Flathub website contain a button to install the package. This pull request adds support for opening flatpak+https URLs in mintinstall to automatically navigate directly to the details of the package within the app.

There's already been a handler for the flatpakref files. I'd rather change that to support this instead of directly on the normal mintinstall launcher.

See the mintinstall-fp-handler desktop and /bin files and handle_command_line_install(). You should be able to add the extra mimetype and re-use most of the code (besides downloading the file).

Thanks for the help!

I'll refactor and mark ready for review when ready.
