[timse201]

Notes is used for 2 different functions. Link notes and notes in the editor.

I'll set this to 7.0 for now.

To be clear, what is needed here is a context for translators, using the _x() function.

## Summary

Fixes a translation ambiguity where the string "Notes" is used in two distinct UI contexts with different meanings, causing conflicts for translators (e.g. German requires "Anmerkungen" for the Link Manager field vs. "Notiz" for the editor collaborative Notes feature).

## Changes

• src/wp-admin/includes/meta-boxes.php — Replaced _e( 'Notes' ) with _ex( 'Notes', 'link manager notes field label' ) and added a /* translators: */ comment on the Notes textarea label in the Link Manager edit screen.

## Why

WordPress 6.9 introduced a collaborative "Notes" feature in the block editor. Both it and the pre-existing Link Manager "Notes" field share the same bare translation string, making it impossible for translators to supply different translations for each context. Using _ex() with a context string resolves this ambiguity per ​WordPress i18n best practices.

## Testing

No behavioral change — this is a translation context fix only. Verify by confirming the Link Manager edit screen still renders the "Notes" label correctly.

I18N: Provide gettext context to disambiguate translation strings for "Notes".

"Notes" translation string is used in both the Notes features and in the Link Manager, and they can have different meaning in some Locales, like in German for example. This changeset helps disambuguating these different contexts.
