The entry gates to portal vaults can now set their long feature description via
the desc_long property of the Lua marker. The lets the portal vault code be
enitrely self contained, rather than having to have a portion of the
description in dat/descript/features.txt. Also, in theory each different entry
vault could have its own version of the description, or it could even
programatically vary after the entry vault had been generated (since it can be
a function in addition to a string). Also, since the gate's short feature
description is no longer needed as a key into the features database, the short
description doesn't need to be the same for each entry vault.
The way I put the descriptions into the .des files is a bit clunky, but when I
tried to use the Lua multi-line string quote ([[string]]) each line displayed
by Crawl was indented one space.
