Feature Description

Currently, Gitea does not provide a field for adding descriptions to secrets and variables in the repository settings. This makes it difficult for users to understand the purpose of a specific secret or variable, especially in larger projects with multiple contributors.
Thank you for considering this feature request!

I've added a basic description feature. For secrets, it works by replacing the ***** section and seems okay so far. But for variables, replacing the original values seems not well. Any other ideas?

Maybe always put 3 lines, secrets could put **** and variables put <value>.

How about this? If there is a description, the icon appears, if not, there is no icon. There will be fewer extra lines and they will all have the same height.

I will try a 3 line layout first, using tips doesn't feel intuitive enough.
