Describe the bug

When using model with versions upstream of a model, the generate schema yaml cannot retrieve the column descriptions.

Steps to reproduce

Create a model with a v1 and v2 upstream of a model you want to generate a yaml for and set upstream_descriptions=True. It will not grab column descriptions of the upstream model.

Expected results

It grabs the column descriptions of the latest version of the upstream model.

Actual results

It does not give any column descriptions from the upstream versioned model.
