Reviewed by Geoffrey Garen.

In Bug 254189 we corrected a bug where the name of the WebKit Built-in PDF plugin was localized
for the user's settings, which confused some anti-fraud software because the specification requires
the name to be in plain English text.

While that issue was fixed, the specification also requires a consistent English label, "Portable
Document Format" be returned by the 'description' property of the plugin. This is currently localized
in Safari, leading to some anti-fraud software failing.

This patch modifies only the return value from Navigator.plugins[].description, so that other
elements of the Browser UI can correctly localize the description.
