Bug Description

Ubuntu packages are shown in gnome-software with the name, followed by the summary, followed by install buttons, and finally followed by a more detailed description. In contrast, snaps are shown with the name, detailed summary, followed by install buttons. The summary isn't present, and the experience isn't consistent with normal packages.

I suggest we maintain consistency: show the snap name, followed by the snap summary, followed by install buttons, and finally followed by the more detailed description.

I would like to suggest to indicate the name "Nextcloud Server" or "Nextcloud Client" depending on the type of software in this case. At the moment of writing, this is not clear (Nextcloud).
