Resource revisions are opaque, could use version or description metadata

Knowing the revision of a resource for a charm doesn't give you any real information about what that resource actually contains. This makes resources very opaque to the user and makes it difficult for the charm author to verify what resources may need updates.
While the general nature of resources means that it's basically impossible to determine anything automatically about the resource, it would be very helpful to allow the charm author to manually specify a version or description when attaching a new resource revision that would give them and the user some indication about what's contained in the resource revision.
