Research direction
Investigate the OpenAPI metadata generation for form parameters in ASP.NET Core. Look at how `FromForm` attributes are processed and how the description property is mapped. Check the relevant source code in the OpenApi model binding or operation filters. The issue reporter provided a sample repo. Reproduce and identify where the description is lost.
