ubuntu-mate.gschema.override should begin with a "nn_" number

Bug Description

ubuntu-mate ships with those gsettings overrides:

$ dpkg -S /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/*mate*.override
mate-desktop-environment-core: /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/mate-ubuntu.gschema.override
ubuntu-mate-default-settings: /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/ubuntu-mate.gschema.override

A first note is if those two overrides can be merged into one, i.e. if mate-ubuntu.gschema.override can be dropped.

A second note is that those filenames should begin with nn_ numbers, so that it's easier for sysadmins and vendors to override them:
$ man glib-compile-schemas ==>
> By convention, vendor override files begin with nn_ where nn is a number from 00 to 99.
> Higher numbered files have higher priority (eg: if the same override is made in a file numbered
> 10 and then again in a file numbered 20, the override from 20 will take precedence).
