bookmark import should use "description" as "abstract"

anarcat

When importing a bookmarks file, the "description" field is lost. It could be imported as well, as the "abstract" field.

(It's feature requests and bug reports that should be posted here first. If you have an actual patch, you can always submit a pull request directly on GitHub — we just might not accept it. Before beginning a lot of work it's usually a good idea to discuss it here or, for more technical discussions, on zotero-dev first, since you'll have a better idea of whether the existing behavior is intended (as was the case on your other issue), and the discussion may shape the patch.)
