 When the user is on the current release, but is set to receive nightlies,
 via the Beta Tester plugin or otherwise, the footer message will be `You
 are using a development version...` technically this is incorrect.

 In `wp-admin/includes/update.php` `core_update_footer()` --
 It displays because the `$cur->response` is `development`. I propose that
 the message be changed under these conditions to `Your next update will be
 to a development version...`
