Better instructions when daemon is incompatible due to upgrade #1749

Existing (or partially existing) functionality needs to be changed
I had 0.22.0 previously, did not close LBRY, ran the 0.22.2 installer.
When LBRY came back up it said, "This browser is running with an incompatible version of the LBRY protocol and your install must be repaired." (Known bug: the daemon was not killed before the upgrade, only LBRY-app.)
I hit "Quit Daemon" and LBRY exited.
Since it said that my install must be repaired I waited for it to repair it. That does not happen. Instead I had to re-run the installer to repair my install.
I suggest changing the error message to one of the following:
"This browser is running with an incompatible version of the LBRY protocol, hit Quit Daemon and rerun the installation package."
or
"This browser is running with an incompatible version of the LBRY protocol, please rerun the installation package to repair your LBRY installation."
