Ubuntu snap for drive

[Dedsec1]

Hi odeke-em

i wanted to make it easier for people to install drive on different types of Linux distros, so i went ahead an setup an Ubuntu snap for drive, you can install drive by doing the following command. luckily snaps can be deployed on other distros as well such as Redhat, CentOS, Debian etc. currently i have my launchpad account pulling from my fork automatically using git and building an new snap each time i change something. so once you add my snapcraft.yaml file to the main repo for drive, i can change my launchpad settings to grab any changes automatically and push an new snap.

sudo snap install drive --classic

@odeke-em is there anything that blocks this PR from merging?

[odeke-em]

My apologies for the very late reply @Dedsec1, I have been swamped for the past year and more. Awesome, I'll kindly page some Linux folks to help me review this change @shaggytwodope @m-svo. Also @LyzardKing posted some feedback PTAL.

@idvoretskyi nothing blocking it, I was just away from here for a while :)

@odeke-em The only thing I'd add to the current PR are the following lines:

version: 'master'
version-script: |
    grep "Version =" src/about.go | cut -d'"' -f2
base: core18

First we set the version to a string, then we override it with the actual drive version. Then in the 3rd line the base is updated to the latest ubuntu LTS

Also, the classic option when installing is no longer needed. @odeke-em If there's anything needed to get this completed let me know!

@odeke-em sorry, not my area of expertise, so not able to review

@odeke-em There seems to be an outdated version already uploaded to the snap store. Once the snapcraft.yaml file is included in the repo you can ask on the snapcraft forum for the ownership of the snap to be transferred to you. And the snap would build automatically on every upstream commit.

[idvoretskyi]

the ownership of the snap to be transferred to you

+1.

@odeke-em What can we do to get this merged? I can open another PR with my changes.. A part from that I can tell that I have it built with my snap changes and it seems to work properly. Although there might be something else that needs testing..
