[Feature] Enable Setting BigQuery Dataset Descriptions

[mlaforet]

Is this your first time submitting a feature request?

• I have read the expectations for open source contributors
• I have searched the existing issues, and I could not find an existing issue for this feature
• I am requesting a straightforward extension of existing dbt-bigquery functionality, rather than a Big Idea better suited to a discussion

Describe the feature

The persist_docs feature supports materializing descriptions for tables and columns. It would be great to add support for adding dataset descriptions.

@mlaforet I'm interested in contributing to this request as my first contribution. Do you have any further information on this?

[mlaforet]

@simbazzuk I haven't contributed to DBT before and truthfully haven't dug into the code base. I was hoping that a maintainer would triage the issue and provide their input 🤞

TIL Bigquery had dataset descriptions. Thank you for opening this issue up - we would be very open to an external contribution @simbazzuk

@amychen1776 any pointers on where I can make the change?
