Bug Description

[Impact]
Due to a code change for channel names in snapd gnome-software in bionic doesn't show versions in the 'latest/*' channels. Solution is to backport changes that always use the full name for channels to avoid this problem. Noticed in https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/track-request-v6-for-postman/13425/9

[Test Case]
1. Open GNOME Software
2. Search for the 'postman' snap

Expected result:
latest/stable channel shown with version like 7.21.1

Observed result:
No version shown in for latest/* channels.

[Regression potential]
Risk of introducing new bugs in relation to channels.
