#60472: Improve the `plugin_missing_dependencies` error message
--------------------------+--------------------

Follow up to #22316/[57545].
In `validate_plugin_requirements()`, a new error message was added that is
displayed in certain scenarios when plugin dependencies are unmet.
> <strong>Error:</strong> %s requires plugins that are not installed or
activated.
There's no clear call to action here. At a minimum there should be a link
to the Plugins page.
I think the wording could also be improved. Here are a few suggestions:
- `%s` has unmet requirements and cannot be activated.
- `%s` requires the following plugins to be active: %%list of plugins%%
- `%s` cannot be activated unless the following plugins are installed and
activated: %%list of plugins%%
