When Flatpak's P2P updates support was replaced with the "sideloading" implementation in 1.7.1, a new server side repo config key "deploy-sideload-collection-id" was added which gets set when you pass "--deploy-sideload-collection-id" to "flatpak build-update-repo", and has the effect of setting "xa.deploy-collection-id" in the repo metadata that is pulled by clients, which itself causes a collection id to be set on the remote for clients using Flatpak >= 1.7.1. This commit adds an analogous key in flatpakref and flatpakrepo files, so the collection id can be set when the remote is configured, rather than later on when the repo metadata is pulled and acted upon. As before with DeployCollectionID, it has no difference in function compared to DeployCollectionID or CollectionID and the only difference is which Flatpak versions are affected. It would've been better if this were added in 1.7.1 when the sideload support was added, but alas here we are. (Also update the docs and unit tests)
