Change the usage misnomer to "description" (#13598)
# Description
    
The meaning of the word usage is specific to describing how a command
function is *used* and not a synonym for general description. Usage can
be used to describe the SYNOPSIS or EXAMPLES sections of a man page
where the permitted argument combinations are shown or example *uses*
are given.
Let's not confuse people and call it what it is a description.

Our `help` command already creates its own *Usage* section based on the
available arguments and doesn't refer to the description with usage.

# User-Facing Changes

`help commands` and `scope commands` will now use `description` or
`extra_description`
`usage`-> `description`
`extra_usage` -> `extra_description`

Breaking change in the plugin protocol:

In the signature record communicated with the engine.
`usage`-> `description`
`extra_usage` -> `extra_description`

The same rename also takes place for the methods on
`SimplePluginCommand` and `PluginCommand`

Fix deadlock on PluginCustomValue drop (#12418)
# Description
Because the plugin interface reader thread can be responsible for
sending a drop notification, it's possible for it to end up in a
deadlock where it's waiting for the response to the drop notification
call.

I decided that the best way to address this is to just discard the
response and not wait for it. It's not really important to synchronize
with the response to `Dropped`, so this is probably faster anyway.

cc @ayax79, this is your issue where polars is getting stuck

# User-Facing Changes
- A bug fix
- Custom value plugin: `custom-value handle update` command

# Tests + Formatting

Tried to add a test with a long pipeline with a lot of drops and run it
over and over to reproduce the deadlock.

- 🟢 `toolkit fmt`
- 🟢 `toolkit clippy`
- 🟢 `toolkit test`
- 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib`
