Pull Request for Issue #24739
Summary of Changes
The URL field description is used as anchor text for the URL.
This PR is based on the work and the suggestion of Laura ( @rytechsites ): #24739 (comment)
PROs: links will have now an anchor text.
Cons: All the URLs will have the same anchor text.
Testing Instructions
Create a field, choose type "URL", specify a Description for the URL field.
Create an article, fill the URL field.
Expected result
In the frontend you won't see anymore the raw URL, but you will see the description of the field as anchor text for all the URLs using such field.
Documentation Changes Required
Add this behavior to the URL field documentation page: https://docs.joomla.org/J3.x:Adding_custom_fields/Url_Field

I am not in favor of this patch.
Not only we would have the same anchor text but it would be the same whatever the language as the description (which would have to be an ini string constant) is not going through JText.

Using field description here is totally wrong. It is shown in edit form.
