Provide advisory description in `advisories` key

Opened this issue · 1 comments

The CachedUpdate property contains advisories key, which has id, kind, severity, packages and cve-references (as a sub-key of the metadata). It would be nice to have also advisory description (dnf_advisory_get_description()) in the keys, thus apps like gnome-software can show the user the update description (as it does in case of the PackageKit).

The description itself does not guarantee it references all bugs/CVE-s on its own, it depends on the update creator whether he/she writes short or descriptive descriptions, but this is a good start to show similar information as PackageKit plugin in the gnome-software does.

Furthermore, you already traverse the advisories, thus it's only about more data being transferred over D-Bus.
