#6106: Xprofile admin groups desc not stripping slashes

 Severity:  minor         |   Keywords:  has-patch
--------------------------+-----------------------
 In the group description on an xprofile admin edit screen we are not
 handling escapes, rendering back \'s etc

 Patch wraps $group->description in stripslashes() before we esc_attr() it
 (not sure esc_attr is correct here? rather than esc_html if we are pushing
 out to an html element rather than to a html attr? )

 Also to note in checking  the field description for same issue, they are
 handled differently in echoing a function `bp_the_profile_field_name`
 which is handling the stripping elsewhere so we have a slight variance in
 approaches here!
