Patch: Remove "zz-application/zz-winassoc-xls" from mimetypes listed in .desktop file

As explained in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41286 shared-mime-info has zz-application/zz-winassoc-xls as an alias for application/vnd.ms-excel, so there is no need to explicitly list it.

The attached patch removes it, fixing the following warning whenever update-desktop-database is run:

Warning in file "/usr/share/applications/gnumeric.desktop": usage of MIME type "zz-application/zz-winassoc-xls" is discouraged ("zz-application/zz-winassoc-xls" should be replaced with "application/vnd.ms-excel")
