 When we ask people to test new or RC versions of Yoast SEO, they are often
 scared to delete the plugin through the admin, as the delete message says:

 "Are you sure you want to delete %s and its data?"

 The thing is: Yoast SEO does _not_, in fact, delete its data when you
 delete the plugin as that would lead to a lot of headaches everywhere. Can
 we make that string dependent on whether the plugin actually is an
 uninstallable plugin, per `is_uninstallable_plugin`? So when the plugin
 does not have an `uninstall.php`, can we  change the sentence to just:

 "Are you sure you want to delete %s?"

 We actually already have that sentence for themes, so it shouldn't add any
 translation burden.
