The enhanced method of menu_launch_type does not cover for
special corner cases, where the application starts in a
specific mode (settings dialogues etc.)
This handles exceptions for Software.
The previous version of menu_launch_type took the name of the
application as an argument and it started the application.
To maximize the application or to check that it has started indeed
we had to do it manually.
Now, the application also takes "maximize => 1" or "checkstart => 1"
to maximize the application or check that it has started as optional
arguments to avoid doing it manually, while it still accepts just
the name of the application and behaves like it did before.
Note that if you decide to use the checkstart argument, you
also need to update the check-needles.py script to whitelist
the application needle tag, see the example test scripts
attached to this PR.

There's a couple of places where we do menu_launch_type in KDE
without doing this workaround first, and they do run into the
bug sometimes. Let's factor it out from the few places it's
already repeated, and add it to the places it is missing.

This is the same thing we do for the app_startstop tests in
aaa_setup, applied to a couple of other places we use
menu_launch_type in KDE and it's having trouble.

This PR builds on some elements of the current upgrade process,
such as upgrade_boot, upgrade_preinstall, upgrade_postinstall, but
replaces the upgrade_run with graphical_upgrade_run to use graphical
methods to upgrade the system.
This would not be possible without necessary settings, that are
performed by graphical_upgrade_prerequisites.
Works for both Gnome and KDE.
