Rename content warning (CW) to content notice (CN)
### Pitch I would suggest to rename content warning to content notice in the mastodon frontend. This would make it more clearly what it is actually used for by many people without changing the meaning to much. ### Motivation After the massive influx of new people to the fediverse there is an enormous discussion, especially in the German speaking parts of the fedi. Many problems occur because of differences in the interpretation of what a warning exactly is and there is a lot of discussion summarized as "It is wrong if you use this feature for something that is not clearly a warning" and "I don't knot what is worth a warning". This is also understandable as warning is a strong word and a bit judgemental. For this reason I would like to rename this feature to content notice (CN) which is a more neutral wording that can be used to inform others about the content of a post if they open it. It can still be used like a content warning but it is more clear for everyone that the main aim is to inform the reader about the following content.
