chore: drop the duplicated package descriptions from root apm.yml

Why: for a local-path marketplace entry, apm treats a root description: as
an override of the package's own apm.yml, reported only at verbose level,
so the "two copies stay identical" rule had no enforcement. Same fix as
2def060 made for version:.

Implementation Notes:
- All six root copies matched their package apm.yml before removal; the
  compiled marketplace.json descriptions are unchanged.
- apm-workflow references now scope the "omit it" advice to local-path
  entries: on a remote entry, version: is the semver range that selects
  the tag, and version: or ref: is required.

Impact: ADR-0021 amended; the package apm.yml is the single source.

The version belongs to the package, not to the repo: editing `plugins/foo/.apm/` never bumps
`plugins/bar/apm.yml`.
Under a `per_package` strategy this `version:` is the single source: when a catalog's
`marketplace.packages[]` entry omits `version:`, `apm pack` reads it from the package's `apm.yml`.
Do not restate it there. A `version:` on the entry is an override, not a copy — it silently wins in
the compiled `marketplace.json`, and `apm pack --check-versions` still reports `[matches]` when it
disagrees with the package's own number, so drift between the two is never caught. Set one only
when an override is the intent. A skipped bump is not caught either: nothing infers intent from a
content diff. The catalog's own version follows a separate rule — see `references/marketplace.md`.

`description:` behaves the same way: a local entry that omits it publishes the package `apm.yml`'s
`description`, and one that sets it silently overrides it. A remote entry is different. There,
`version:` is the semver range that selects which git tag to resolve, and a remote entry must carry
`version:` or `ref:`. Its `description:`, when set, is the published text.
