Description

If someone does not have the homepage turned on in their preferences, instead of seeing the homepage they should see a sentence link that takes them to preferences so that they may turn it on. That sentence should read:

To enable the newcomer homepage, visit your "Newcomer homepage" settings in Preferences.

The word "Preferences" should link to the "Newcomer homepage" header in the user's preferences.

This sentence will need to be translated.

@MMiller_WMF I assume we don't want any kind of logging to HomepageVisit to occur in this scenario, but just double-checking.

@kostajh -- thanks for checking, and no, we do not need logging here. Hopefully this change will cause users to visit the homepage more often through the flows that we already have instrumented.

Checked in betalabs - moving to @MMiller_WMF for review since the implementation is different from the specs (in my opinion, it's fine).

"Newcomer homepage" - is not in quotes
Preferences is not a link, Newcomer homepage is a link that correctly directs a user to the setting "Newcome homepage" in Preferences
the message is still not translated to Korean and Czech

Thanks, @Etonkovidova. Yes, I do think we should change this to match the specifications so that there are quotes and the link on the word "Preferences" instead of on "Newcomer homepage".
