[IMP] base: clarify ownership message

PR #186550

Core18.0baseauth_totptest_apikeys

The wording shown when an administrator is asked for a password while editing another user's account has been clarified. This reduces confusion during sensitive account management actions and helps admins understand why the prompt appears.

Original PR description

Sometimes admins are asked the password when they modify the account of someone else. The wording shown is a bit confusing. This commit makes the wording more clear.

[IMP] hr_holidays: clarify constraint on negative balance

PR #186561

Core18.0hr_holidays

The time off settings now show a clearer warning when a negative balance limit is set incorrectly. This reduces confusion for users by replacing contradictory wording with a more understandable message.

Original PR description

Before this commit, the error message that the user receives once triggering the constraint on negative balances values was: "The negative amount must be greater than 0."
which was a bit confusing by having side to side "negative" and "greater than 0"

This commit rephrases that error message.
