Fix uninstallation scripts in Linux installers to take action on desktop files only if these desktop files are not owned by another package. This prevents `xdg-mime uninstall`, `xdg-desktop-menu uninstall` commands from execution in case of upgrades.

Borrowed helper shell script function from "launchers as services" for the fix. Now on Linux there is shared code between "launchers as services" and "desktop integration" subsystems - "common_utils.sh". Added `ServiceAndDesktopTest.java` to test how they align.
