Code equivalent to https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Description 
Inputs:
  1) text - description text to display
  2) text_lang - language code for the above text, also used as a name of the CSS formating class
  3) args -  additional optional arguments
       * inline - Optional, default is false. When set to true, forces the template to be displayed 
            inline, so that it does not break the current paragraph (that makes possible to put several 
	        descriptions side by side on a single line)
	   * ext - extension text shown after the language name before colon (optional, default is empty)
	   * haver -  hover aka mouseover aka tooltip text
	   * disp_lang - 
	   * user_lang - language code of the users language (used for the hover aka mouseover aka tooltip text) 
	       if args.hover is not provided (defaults to
