Undo this change & instead just remove the "description" element under the "choices" element

Fixed in 9f794e1. Only removed the "description" field from the choice object, keeping the choice itself.

These descriptions are redundant. Removing them removes a bunch of files from the set that we need to touch during each TFM update. |

The descriptions are also inconsistent/incorrectly localized across versions, e.g. here's de_DE but the same applies to all locales: |

Remove net11.0 framework choice descriptions from project templates
Description
Removed obsolete net11.0 framework choice descriptions from template configuration files while preserving the choice structure and all original file formatting.
Changes:
"symbols/Framework/choices/net11.0/description"entries from 196 localized templatestrings files across 14 project templates"description": "Target net11.0"field from net11.0 choice objects in template.json files, keeping the choice structure as{"choice": "net11.0"}Affected templates:
BlazorWeb, ComponentsWebAssembly, EmptyWeb (C#/F#), GrpcService, RazorClassLibrary, RazorPagesWeb, StarterWeb (C#/F#), WebApi (C#/F#), WebApiAot, Worker (C#/F#)
The Framework symbol's choices array now contains the net11.0 choice without a description field, maintaining the default value and replacement behavior.
