Today, the snapcraft CLI supports both "none" and "legacy" as app adapters, "none" meaning no wrappers or environment at all, and "legacy" meaning wrappers. This PR resolves [LP: #1794532](https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapcraft/+bug/1794532) by adding a "full" app adapter that means no more wrappers, but fully utilizes snap'd command-chain to accomplish the same thing in a much nicer way. This requires snapd 2.36 which is not yet released, so continue using "legacy" as the default for now.
