Details:

The Desktop Entry Specification
<http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s05.html>
defines a Keywords entry for the desktop file, which is meant to facilitate
searching through entries.  The Gnome project has a specific goal
<https://wiki.gnome.org/Initiatives/GnomeGoals/DesktopFileKeywords> for adding
keywords to application desktop files.  Moreover, the Debian checker Lintian
is now complaining
<https://lintian.debian.org/tags/desktop-entry-lacks-keywords-entry.html> that
the octave.desktop file is lacking the Keywords entry [3].

I am attaching to this bug report a changeset that adds a couple of useful
keywords to the Octave desktop file.  This makes gnome-shell search more
pleasant and useful.
