handle missing "Description" in apt-cache show
do not blindly assume that all packages stanzas have a "Description:" field in 'apt-cache show' as well as in the cache creation itself. We instead assume now that if the stanza has a Description, it will not be the first field as we look out for "\nDescription" to take care of MD5sum as well as (maybe ignored) translated Descriptions embedded in the package stanza. Closes: #712435
