Bug Description

For the Software Center, we need to take an additional custom upload file during upload that will store a package's meta-data for display in the SC. The format of this file is irrelevant to Soyuz, it will simply be published somewhere, like translations files.

The current thought is to publish the meta data file(s) in a location like:

https://private-ppa.launchpad.net/soyuz-team/meta/<ppa_name>/<meta-data-file-name>

When the Software Centre queries Launchpad to get a list of commercial PPAs, we'll make sure there's also a way of discovering the file meta-data names (although it always has the option of a directory listing).
