#53234: Application password access text is misleading for Super Admins

-----------------------------------+-----------------------------
The helper text for application passwords on a Multisite installation
states:
> Application passwords grant access to all {n} blogs in this installation
that you have permissions on.
This is misleading for a Super Admin because an application password for a
Super Admin grants access to all sites on the network, not just ones that
they are a member of.
This text should be different for Super Admins. Something along the lines
of:
> Application passwords grant access to all sites on the network as you
have Super Admin rights.
