* [PATCH 1/4] Make propgraph object descriptions translatable

getObjectDescription() currently constructs propgraph-related object
descriptions incrementally with appendStringInfo(). This effectively
fixes the word order in English, which makes the messages difficult to
translate naturally into languages such as Japanese.

Build the whole object description from a single format string
instead.
