Martin Atkins	399542a168	core: allow outputs to have descriptions (#9722) ... We allow variables to have descriptions specified, as additional context for a module user as to what should be provided for a given variable. We previously lacked a similar mechanism for outputs. Since they too are part of a module's public interface, it makes sense to be able to add descriptions for these for symmetry's sake. This change makes a "description" attribute valid within an "output" configuration block and stores it within the configuration data structure, but doesn't yet do anything further with it. For now this is useful only for third-party tools that might parse a module's config to generate user documentation; later we could expose the descriptions as part of the "apply" output, but that is left for a separate change.	10 years ago
