python-paramiko: Update and clean up meta.

The upstream package has a new maintainer (Jeff Forcier) and thus the
main homepage for the project is the GitHub page.

Also the long description contains quite a lot of unrelevant
information, so I've used the one from PyPI, which is a lot smaller and
just contains what the library supports and does.

-        paramiko is a module for python 2.2 (or higher) that implements the
-        SSH2 protocol for secure (encrypted and authenticated) connections to
-        remote machines. unlike SSL (aka TLS), SSH2 protocol does not require
-        heirarchical certificates signed by a powerful central authority. you
-        may know SSH2 as the protocol that replaced telnet and rsh for secure
-        access to remote shells, but the protocol also includes the ability
-        to open arbitrary channels to remote services across the encrypted
-        tunnel -- this is how sftp works, for example.  it is written
-        entirely in python (no C or platform-dependent code) and is released
-        under the GNU LGPL (lesser GPL).  '';
+        This is a library for making SSH2 connections (client or server).
+        Emphasis is on using SSH2 as an alternative to SSL for making secure
+        connections between python scripts. All major ciphers and hash methods
+        are supported. SFTP client and server mode are both supported too.
