Warn before enabling Plymouth in the bootloader menu (#4604)
Plymouth is purely cosmetic and a frequent source of boot breakage, most notably a black screen with the NVIDIA driver and a hidden LUKS password prompt. Show a yellow confirmation warning listing these risks when enabling it; when Plymouth is already enabled the user is only changing the theme, so the warning is skipped. Regenerate base.pot for the new strings.
