Page descriptions not retained from group, institution and site pages

Reported at https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=7731

When copying a group, institution or site page, the page description is not copied, which makes it less useful for templates.

Confirmed in 16.10dev and 16.04, most likely also in 15.10.

Hi cecelia,

Tested this and I found that when we navigate to groups>select a page> pages> Create a page the page description is defaulted with the following content," Set up the default layout for the pages that your users create. You can also add blocks. Please note that any content you add to the default page will appear on every page that your users create." I think this should be blank

Other than that everything looks fine.

The 15.10 patch is slightly different to the others.

in 16.04+ we can check using the SITE_TEMPLATE constant, but that didn't exist in 15.10

instead we need to check if $template->get('owner') === '0' as it seems that fetching the variable from db via get() method make it type string.

But we can't go (int) $template->get('owner') as both '0' and null will be cast to 0
