Cover letter [PATCH v2 0/2] mergetool-lib: Don't use deprecated variable to detect GNOME

To list merge tool candidates we used to use a private GNOME env variable ( GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID) that has been deprecated for long time ago and removed as part of GNOME 3.30.0 release [1].

So replace this using XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP instead, and cleanup the code to avoid duplication and supporting KDE's kdiff3 better.
