fix(scripts): add empty description validation and branch checkout error handling (#1559)

Browse Source 
* fix(scripts): add empty description validation and branch checkout error handling

Adds two critical improvements to both PowerShell and Bash feature creation scripts:

1. Post-trim validation: Prevents creating features with whitespace-only descriptions
2. Branch checkout error handling: Provides clear error messages when branch
   creation fails (e.g., branch already exists) instead of silently continuing

* fix(scripts): use consistent stderr redirection for branch checkout
