            Drop the desktop-file path patch, whose reason no longer holds

The patch rewrote TryExec and Exec in the desktop file to absolute
paths. It was added for rhbz #1059188: Nautilus refused to open pcap
files, reporting "There is no application installed for 'Packet Capture
(PCAPNG)' files", because Wireshark was installed in /usr/sbin, which
is not on an ordinary user's PATH. A TryExec that cannot be resolved
lets the entry be ignored, so the association disappeared. Naming the
binary in full was the right fix for a binary that is not on PATH.

Wireshark is in /usr/bin now, and /usr/sbin is a symlink to bin, so
"wireshark" resolves for any user and the entry works as upstream
ships it.

Keeping the absolute path is not free. It makes the menu entry disagree
with the shell: a build in ~/.local/bin is what "wireshark" runs in a
terminal, but the desktop entry would still start /usr/bin/wireshark.
It is also the minority form here - of the desktop files installed on a
Fedora system, roughly four in five name the program without a path,
and those that do use one are mostly /usr/libexec programs, which is
the same "not on PATH" reason that has now gone away.

A build installed under ~/.local is unaffected either way, since it
installs its own desktop file into ~/.local/share/applications, which
is searched ahead of /usr/share/applications.
