Description Ingo Steuwer

Currently "ucr info" prints the description and the default of an variable, but not the configured type. This should be added.

While this might work for simpl `Type={[ui]int,portnumber,bool,ip[v{4,6}]address,url_{http,proxy}}`, it will not work for `Type=str` as soon as it is combined with `Regex=…` or `Type=int` with arbitrary `Min=…` / `Max=…`: The current format was chosen at it is easy to validate by a machine, but a human might have a hard time to parse it.

This was already discussed as part of the implementation of Bug #54495 and we decided to have such human readable description as part the the UCRV description:

> $ ucr info directory/manager/rest/debug/level
> directory/manager/rest/debug/level: 2
> The verbosity of log messages in /var/log/univention/directory-manager-rest.log. Possible values: 0-4/99 (0: only error messages to 4: all debug statements, with = 99 sensitive data like cleartext passwords is logged as well).

See https://git.knut.univention.de/univention/ucs/-/blob/5.0-2/base/univention-config-registry/python/univention/config_registry/validation.py for all currently implemented types.
