95b78eee25 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`

# Tests + Formatting
- Updated plugin protocol specific changes
# After Submitting
- [ ] update plugin protocol doc

b68c7cf3fa Make polars unpivot consistent with polars pivot (#13335)
# Description
Makes `polars unpivot` use the same arguments as `polars pivot` and
makes it consistent with the polars' rust api. Additionally, support for
the polar's streaming engine has been exposed on eager dataframes.
Previously, it would only work with lazy dataframes.


# User-Facing Changes
* `polars unpivot` argument `--columns`|`-c` has been renamed to
`--index`|`-i`
* `polars unpivot` argument `--values`|`-v` has been renamed to
`--on`|`-o`
* `polars unpivot` short argument for `--streamable` is now `-t` to make
it consistent with `polars pivot`. It was made `-t` for `polars pivot`
because `-s` is short for `--short`

720b4cbd01 Polars 0.41 Upgrade (#13238)
# Description
Upgrading to Polars 0.41

# User-Facing Changes
* `polars melt` has been renamed to `polars unpivot` to match the change
in the polars API. Additionally, it now supports lazy dataframes.
Introduced a `--streamable` option to use the polars streaming engine
for lazy frames.
* The parameter `outer` has been replaced with `full` in `polars join`
to match polars change.
* `polars value-count` now supports the column (rename count column),
parallelize (multithread), sort, and normalize options.
