Enforce Description on approval

• When a list of Tasks and/or AssetVersions are approved in the web UI, but have no descriptions, a form will appear which will allow the user to fill in missing descriptions.

• If the user leave some empty, a new form will appear until all approved entities have a description.

Problems encountered

• I could not find an "elegant" way of dealing with the form results other than suscribing to topic=ftrack.action.launch with an actionIdentifier set manually. I could not find any documentation about how to automatically launch actions from events with forms, only with messages. I tried my best, ended up with a custom ACTION_IDENTIFIER and passing along the source_event

• I could not find a proper way of refreshing the web UI after all missing descriptions are updated. When you don't update all of them, you will get another form, and the ones you updated are indeed refreshed automagically. But the last submit, where everything is updated, doesn't refresh the web UI.

• Closing the dialog with the "X" will just quit and not enforce to have a description. One solution would be to, upon receiving tasks/versions which don't have a description, to reset the status to its previous value, and actually set it to approved only if the description was indeed filled. But I feel that would be confusing. The other solution would be to actually build a widget (instead of using a form), that way you can enforce anything you want.
