The original titles only had the module name, which is not very useful when scanning the list. By adding a very brief description to each title, the table of contents becomes friendlier. Also amend the introduction in the "additional modules" appendix, using the word "Extension" more extensively. Nowadays, almost all contrib modules are extensions, so this is also helpful.
