Issue body
snapcraft fails if snapcraft.yaml contains apps keys with underscores:
apps:
pg_restore:
command: pg_restore
The failure message is confusing:
Issues while validating snapcraft.yaml: The 'apps' property does not match the required schema: Additional properties are not allowed ('pg_basebackup', 'pg_dump', 'pg_restore', 'pg_dumpall', 'pg_isready' were unexpected)
Allowing underscore here is important so my commands match the extensive documentation.
