For a number of years, most of the WordPress error messages have been prefixed with "Error:". However, these messages appear in a context where it's already clear an error occurred. Whether it's an error, a warning, or any other classification, that's not so relevant for users. The content of the message is the relevant part. The "Error:" prefix doesn't add great value while it does add unnecessary complexity for the message readability.
Also, revises some of these messages to improve clarity and removes HTML from translatable strings.

Using all caps should be avoided for better readability and because screen readers may pronounce all-caps words as abbreviations.

All PHP files in `/tests` now conform to the PHP coding standards, or have exceptions appropriately marked.
Travis now also runs `phpcs` on the `/tests` directory, any future changes to these files must conform entirely to the WordPress PHP coding standards. 🎉

"Install" is not a noun, and while it might be acceptable to use the verb as a noun, it is not correct. Using the correct
noun, "installation", increases clarity, especially for non-native English speakers.
This change fixes the usage in user-facing text and in developer documentation.
Fixes#41620
