enhance: include permission group permissions in the generated schema (#13057)

* enhance: include permissions in default permission description

* Only include in schema

* Remove 'which includes` to tauri's build script

* Also bump utils

* Clippy
My local clippy didn't report this, weird

* Use `which enables all commands`
for default permissions that enables everything

* Extract description into a variable

* Generate permissions with or without description

* Tweak the docs and generate 'which includes'

* Simplify to just `includes`

* Docs change change file

* Put the change in minor

* Update .changes/include-permissions-in-schema.md
