Remove now unused package name from apk table The package name is only stored in the `fdroid_app` table now, so we need to remove it form the `fdroid_apk` table. Under normal circumstances, I'd normally just leave unused fields in the DDL (the SQL which defines the tables) and never use it from within the Java code. However in this case, the package name formed part of the primary key of this table. Seeing as we are not inserting into that column any more, it isn't okay to leave it there but instead it must be removed so that we can put a more appropriate primary key on the table. In this case, the new primary key is `appId` + `vercode` + `repoId`. I think this is the final merge request before I submit a MR with repo priorities. See merge request !359

FAQ
- Why does F-Droid require "Unknown Sources" to install apps by default?
Because a regular Android app cannot act as a package manager on its own. To do so, it would require system privileges (see below), similar to what Google Play does.
- Can I avoid enabling "Unknown Sources" by installing F-Droid as a privileged system app?
This used to be the case, but no longer is. Now the Privileged Extension is the one that should be placed in the system. It can be bundled with a ROM or installed via a zip, or alternatively F-Droid can install it as a system app using root.
