Public bug reported:

Scopes sometimes need to provide a message to a user. Well known cases include:
* Hey, turn your network on! 
* Yo, turn on location awareness!

Currently, such "messaging" is up to the scope implementation and the
only option for displaying messages is to post them as results in the
scope itself.

unity8 and the unity-scopes-shell should provide the ability to message
the user such well known messages (and probably others), and those
messages should be translated.

Perhaps there should also be the ability for the scope to provide the
translated message text so we can also support scope-specific,
customized messages.
