gnu: isc-bind: List included utilities in the description.

A frequent question was: "Which package contained the 'dig' utility?"  This
change should make the question answerable through 'guix search'.

* gnu/packages/dns.scm (isc-bind)[synopsis]: Remove leading article.
[description]: Add a table listing the utilities contained in the 'utils'
output and insert a missing space between two sentences.
[home-page]: Update.
