gpush: make it possible to set a description on each series

this can be much more verbose than a topic name, and is aimed at
authoring cover letters in mail mode.

+    -D, --edit-description
+        Edit the series' description. In mail mode, a non-empty description
+        causes a cover letter to be created; the first paragraph becomes
+        the subject, while the rest becomes the body. In Gerrit mode, the
+        description is not processed, and may be used for local notes. The
+        commit listing includes only the first line, except in verbose mode.

         In mail mode, set additional options for git format-patch and
