package_ipk: correct ipk multiline descriptions

Empty descriptions lines are set with a space following by a dot and
the multiline ones require a leading space. Also, for non-empty lines,
there is no need for formating with textwrap, so remove the logic for
the latter. The documentation for multiline description was taken from [1].
