[Bug 1976302] [NEW] software-properties Additional Drivers tab informational text enhancement

[Little Girl]

Public bug reported:

The Kubuntu installation process offers this check-box on the second
screen:

"Install third-party software for graphics and Wi-Fi hardware, Flash,
MP3 and other media" box while installing Kubuntu as another form of
manual installation."

If you check that box, your video drivers are handled for you by a
collaboration between Ubuntu and NVIDIA.

The "Additional Drivers" tab in Software Sources then displays these messages when you open it:
	* "This device is using a manually-installed driver."
	* "Continue using a manually installed driver"
	* "No proprietary drivers are in use."

It wasn't obvious to me that "manually-installed" included those of us
who checked the little check-box during the installation of the
operating system to have our video drivers automatically installed and
managed by Ubuntu and NVIDIA.

I would like to suggest that the first two messages in the "Additional Drivers" tab get changed to something like this to make it obvious that they include us:
	* "This device is using a manually-installed or third-party driver."
	* "Continue using a manually-installed or third-party driver"

Or if you'd like to word it differently:
	* "This device is using a manually-installed or automatically-installed driver."
	* "Continue using a manually-installed or automatically-installed driver"

** Affects: software-properties (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Attachment added: "The two places in which the text appears in the "Additional "Drivers" tab are marked here with arrows."
