Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

libbsd provides useful functions commonly found on BSD systems, and lacking on others like GNU systems, thus making it easier to port projects with strong BSD origins, without needing to embed the same code over and over again on each project.
