The patch is against commit 2e96dc639.

It does not fix any bug. Rather adds a new feature [1]. Currently, org
provides org-link-make-description-function as user customisation to
compute default link description. The patch provides a way to set such
description functions on per link type basis (via :description link
parameter). Using link parameters looks natural for me since similar
customisation is already done in :follow and :store link parameters.
