Grammar fix for theme update

Description

A minor fix for the themes update process - themes' files is possessive so should have an apostrophe.

The patch assumes that the phrase is talking about multiple themes, which it seems to be.

If I were to change only one thing there, it would be the capital T, which makes no sense.

The apostrophe is required if the noun is possessive, as you said, but here the noun can also be interpreted as a modifier of the following noun, in which case it is correct as it is now.

  • Milestone changed from Awaiting Review to 3.1

Nice catch. We should change "the Themes files" to just "theme files".
