#1700: New Submission Form - Improve plugin upload error messages

Currently if you try to upload a plugin that already exists, you get this:
> There is already a plugin called hello-dolly by a different author.
Please change the name of your plugin and upload it again.
Since we *can* rename plugins if not-approved (yay! See #1686) we should
have a better error that explains where the name is being pulled from
here.
> There is already a plugin called hello-dolly by a different author.
Please change the name of your plugin in the plugin header file and upload
it again.
I've updated the plugin add page to have a FAQ that (I hope) will explain
this better...
