UX-08 2c: short refusals, error texts and option texts
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 8m50s
infra-pin / fresh (pull_request) Successful in 2s

Validator refusals name the setting by its label and key, say what is
wrong and what to change, and keep the rejected value and limit. Option
names and descriptions are short in en and nl; citations moved to DOCS
"For installers" and the test_translations citation check now pins the
instruction on the tab and the record in DOCS. No rule, key, schema,
default or exit code changed. Allowlist 167 -> 43 (log lines only).

- **Title**: at most 5 everyday words. It says what is wrong ("Meter reading may be stuck"). No "GoodWe:" prefix, no full stop.
- **Body**: **one sentence** of at most 25 words, saying what happened and what to do. A **red alarm** may use up to **3 sentences** (70 words, each sentence at most 30 words), so that no action a person must take is lost.
- **Details**: the last line links to the add-on documentation and names the section with the rest: `Details: add-on documentation, section "<title>" under Notifications.` Background, figures, reason codes and history go there or into the log, never into the body.
- **Status row**: one sentence of at most 15 words. A **red** row may use up to 3 sentences (30 words), like a red alarm. It shows the live numbers the reader acts on and never an HA entity id. **Banner**: at most 12 words. **Refusal**: at most 30 words, naming the setting by its label. **Option name**: at most 6 words, not counting the group prefix. **Option description**: at most 30 words. Where a value comes from belongs in DOCS.md.

It shows the live numbers the reader acts on and never an HA entity id. **Banner**: at most 12 words. **Refusal**: at most 30 words, naming the setting by its label and then its key, as `messages.setting()` writes it: “Inverter rating” (max_w). **Option name**: at most 6 words, not counting the group prefix. **Option description**: at most 30 words. Where a value comes from belongs in DOCS.md.
- **Log line** (WARNING/ERROR): one line, at most 25 words. The reasoning goes on a DEBUG line. Log lines stay in English and are not translated.
- **Sentences**: one idea each, active voice, present tense, with nothing nested in brackets and no semicolons (a semicolon is a second sentence in disguise). These translate well into Dutch and French.
