 The syntax of variant descriptions lends itself to being written
 incorrectly, resulting in unintended whitespace before or after the
 description.

 Wrong:

 {{{
 variant foo description { foodesc } {
     ...
 }
 variant bar description " bardesc " {
     ...
 }
 }}}

 Right:

 {{{
 variant foo description {foodesc} {
     ...
 }
 variant bar description "bardesc" {
     ...
 }
 }}}

 `port lint` should warn of whitespace before or after a variant
 description.
