scripts: Add support for source package Description and substvars
We support a new source package Description field in debian/control
that will be copied into the .dsc file. The field will also be used
to initialize the new source:Synopsis and source:Extended-Description
substvars that will be available when generating the DEBIAN/control
and .changes files.
Closes: #555743
