GDALDriver::CreateCopy() method always rewrites description of the target dataset

Description

GDALDriver::CreateCopy() contains the following code 

            if( poDstDS->GetDescription() == NULL 
                || strlen(poDstDS->GetDescription()) > 0 )
                poDstDS->SetDescription( pszFilename );

That means description of the target dataset will be rewritten even if it is already set. The code should be changed to: 

            if( poDstDS->GetDescription() == NULL 
                || strlen(poDstDS->GetDescription()) == 0 )
                poDstDS->SetDescription( pszFilename );
