Get more metadata from ocrd-tool.json #12

This needs more investigation, as, for example, there seems to be no project level description in ocrd-tool.json (they are per tool) and we would need to check the OCR-D specs for the URLs.

These fields are not as important to keep in sync as the "ever-changing version"
