Rename source package to meta-gnome

Jeremy Bícha requested to merge wip/rename-source into debian/latest

I think this looks good but I'm filing a merge request in case someone wants to do this differently.

This source package was originally meta-gnome2 and then renamed to meta-gnome3 once we packaged GNOME 3.0. Although GNOME 40 wasn't really a massive change from 3.38, "GNOME 3" isn't a good label any more.

There is a meta-kde source package. Some other desktop environments use a different name style. Select examples:

It might take months for a rename to make it through the NEW queue, but we are early in the development cycle so there isn't much urgency.
