It looks like twine supports it, at least for wheels: https://github.com/pypa/twine/blob/f74eae5506300387572c65c9dbfe240d927788c2/twine/wheel.py#L99 I don't think pip needs to support it (does pip do anything with descriptions?). I haven't looked at PyPI's code, but I'd guess it uses the metadata sent with the upload by tools like twine and flit.
