Sample data needed by tests - draft

I've added test set testing basic functionality of gnome-software. Unfortunately, these tests need some sample data to search and browse them. There is a way to get them, using data/Makefile with parameter 'install-sample-data'. But the problem is, GnomeContinuous has no network so this is not gonna work.

An option is to get archive, decrease the size (e.g. keep only default name and remove all other language versions) and commit it to upstream repo. This is not a big deal, I tried it and the archive could about 200kB size.

Problem is that I don't know how to pass it into these Makefile/configure/m4 or whatever to make it install under GnomeContinuous. They should be installed only under GnomeContinuous (it means, it shouldn't be probably installed when someone clones the upstream repo and wants to execute tests).

I also attached some kind of patch draft. It's working, but it's missing the Makefile/configure/m4 magic as I'm not familiar with it enough to do that. Also sorry for the binary, it's compressed archive which is originally over 1MB. I'm afraid it could be also problem (to have binary in upstream repo), I guess.
