initrd/bin/kexec-iso-init.sh: broaden display driver warning text
Replace technical jargon (DRM/KMS, i915, nouveau, etc.) with plain
language: 'ISO has no display driver - screen may be blank after boot'
The warning is for minimal distributions like CorePlus/TinyCore that
ship no KMS drivers for any GPU hardware.
"No Verified Display Driver\n\nNone of this ISO's initramfs images contain\na known DRM/KMS driver (i915, nouveau, amdgpu,\nbochs, etc.).\n\nThe display may be blank after kexec even if\nthe kernel boots successfully.\n\nCorePlus/TinyCore and similar minimal distributions\nare known to lack display drivers.\n\nProceed anyway?" \

"Unverified Display Support\n\nThe ISO's initramfs does not contain a\ndisplay driver for your hardware.\n\nThe screen may be blank after boot even\nif the operating system starts normally.\n\nThis is expected for minimal distributions\nsuch as CorePlus/TinyCore.\n\nProceed anyway?" \
