Summary

Add the ability to change the description of the bot

What is the feature request for?

The core library

The Problem

The description of the bot does not make unnecessary words as it is done in the activity
That is, it allows you to output information without "Playing" "Listening" and other things

The Ideal Solution

Just add a function
By type await self.bot.user.edit(description='Hello World!')

The Current Solution

Unfortunately not

Additional Context

No response

This isn't implemented yet, yeah. For reference: https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/application#edit-current-application. I don't really see a reason to do this programmatically, but we should aim to support that endpoint regardless.

That said, bots can show a custom status (without a "Playing" prefix etc.) as of ~7 months ago, see #1087. This already works in released versions using the snippet mentioned in that PR.
