test-lib: drop comment about test_description
When a comment describing how each test file should start was added in commit [1], it was the second comment of t/test-lib.sh. The comment describes how variable "test_description" is supposed to be assigned at the top of each test file and how "test-lib.sh" should be used by sourcing it. However, even in [1], the comment was ten lines away from the usage of the variable by test-lib.sh. Since then, the comment has drifted away both from the top of the file and from the usage of the variable. The comment just sits in the middle of the initialization of the test library, surrounded by unrelated code, almost one hundred lines away from the usage of "test_description". Nobody has noticed this drift during evolution of test-lib.sh, which suggests that this comment has outlived its usefulness. The assignment of "test_description", sourcing of "test-lib.sh" by tests, and the process of writing tests in general are described in detail in "t/README". So drop the obsolete comment. An alternative solution could be to move the comment either to the top of the file, or down to the usage of variable "test_description".
