appDisplay: Make middle-click like Ctrl+click

When middle-clicking an app icon on the Dash, it will always try to open
a new window of that app, even if the app doesn't support multiple
windows. Meanwhile, Ctrl+click on an app will only open a new window if
the app allows it.

This change prevents middle-clicks on app icons from opening new windows
for apps without multi-window support.

Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/316
