Truncate work item description with option to show all
Current status: Available behind :work_items_beta
(default OFF)
Summary
In order to preserve utility of elements lower on the page when the description is very long, truncate the visible description and use a "read more" action to expose the rest on demand. This can be beneficial in many scenarios but will be especially beneficial in smaller views and when the sidebar is reflowed below the description.

- If a user links to an anchor within the
description
, expand the description.
