kcalc two icons

SUMMARY
At least some snaps published by "kde" show two icons to users causing
confusion.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install (the stable versions) okular or kcalc, or kolourpaint, or
kcolorchooser, or palapeli using `sudo snap install …`
2. Enter the first few letters (or entire name) of the snap in an application
menu's search box. 

OBSERVED RESULT
You'll see two icons. In other words, users are presented with two hits.


EXPECTED RESULT
There should be just the one result.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Tested on Ubuntu 20.04 and Xubuntu 20.04.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Reported in
When I install KolourPaint why does it have two icons? How can I fix it? :::
https://askubuntu.com/q/1231769/248158
and
Why is there two instances of “Okular” and how do I get rid of the other one?
::: https://askubuntu.com/q/1230835/248158

There seem to be redundant .desktop files in
`/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications`.

A workaround is to copy the .desktop files over to
`~/.local/share/applications` and add "NoDisplay=true" to one of the .desktop
files.

Also reported at https://bugs.launchpad.net/snap-store/+bug/1875135 because I
didn't know this was the right place.
