Message:

Application Passwords: display guiding text & link in user-edit.php when unavailable.

This change intends to avoid confusion around the requirements of the Application Passwords feature, specific to it requiring HTTPS and the WP_ENVIRONMENT_TYPE constant.

It does this by conditionally hiding the traditional UI and showing some insightful explanations instead, including a translatable link to the WP_ENVIRONMENT_TYPE documentation on the "Editing wp-config.php" support page.

Props ashfame, audrasjb, iluy, johnbillion.

Fixes #53658.
