Limit project description in sidebar

Sascha Eggenberger requested to merge project-description-read-more into master

What does this MR do and why?

In the FF feedback for the new project overview page it was stated that project descriptions can tend long in certain edge cases, see #434684 (comment 1702626701)

To counter that we introduce a new read more functionality for project descriptions which are longer than ~560 chars. If exceeded a read more button will be shown.
