Feature Request: Optionally set Managed AD Group descriptions #184

Description

@garysharp

Currently, when an AD Group is selected (to be managed by Disco ICT), the description is also synchronized.
The was done intentionally to inform administrators that the group membership will be overridden whenever a sync occurs (and any manual changes will be lost).
In the past, its been recommended to use Disco ICT Managed Groups as a nested group; that is, added to another (parent) group which may contain manual additions.
In recent years we've seen the adoption of Azure AD/Entra ID which has some limitations (nested groups are largely unsupported at this time).
As a result, the descriptions for these groups are appearing in places some technicians do not want (such as Distribution Lists/Global Address Lists).
This request involves a setting (per-managed group) to disable the syncing of the group description.
