Enhance logic for selecting default PPD for a printer

Project Member Reported by weifangsun@chromium.org, Feb 8 2017

Issue description

Currently, when looking up a PPD file associated with a connected printer, we are doing a basic match on the Manufacturer and Model. This results in the user unneccessarily needing to manually specify a PPD.

Examples of future improvements include:
- Identify PPDs which work for a series of printers
- Identify common PPDs that are set for a specific printer and make this the default even if the Manufacturer and Model don't match
