Implement getCollectionDescriptions #7

Closed zjp closed 1 year ago

Sorry to be spammy on this repo! I discovered this unimplemented endpoint by looking in the network tab on the Simple Search GUI. It's a supremely helpful one to have. I want users to be able to right click on a collection in ChimeraX and pull up its webpage easily; currently the only way to do this is by web scraping. This PR changes that!

Interesting, I also didn't know this existed since it's not documented. Let me make sure they don't have any concerns about us using/publicizing it before we roll this in.

Thanks for cleaning up all the spacing stuff too!

My editor does that automatically. 😅 Thanks for being a good sport about it, it'd have been totally reasonable to go the other way and say -- get that stuff out of this commit!

So glad that this endpoint was able to be made public.
