Comment:

 In 43954.2.diff:
 - Show a warning when policy info has changed only on the Edit Page screen
 when editing the policy, and on the Settings => Privacy screen.
 - Add a "bubble" on the Settings menu item and on Settings => Privacy.
 - Remove unused functionality to cache when to check.

 The above seems to work well with one caveat: the menu is ready before the
 `admin_init` action fires, so we can't check for changes then. Added a
 workaround that caches the check (in an option) and updates that cache on
 `admin_init` priority 100 (this means the bubbles will show up or
 disappear one page load later).
