Subject: [PATCH] Admin/Discussion Settings: attempt to clarify intent of
 "Default post settings" section.

This changes the descriptive text underneath 3 settings that are frequently overridden by individual posts & pages, and are also often misunderstood to work differently than they do.

"(These settings may be overridden for individual posts.)"

...becomes...

"Individual posts may override these settings. Changes here will only be applied to new posts."

* Parenthesis were removed to improve text layout and flow for RTL languages.
* Original statement was reworded to emphasize "individual posts".
* New statement provides clarity to users about settings changes not being retroactive.

Props audrasjb, johnjamesjacoby, sabbirshouvo, sabernhardt, tobifjellner.

Fixes #54300.
