Automatic group names are translated to the forum's default locale (e.g. "jeder"… in German). The category permission warning messages and inherited permission tooltips were hardcoding the English "everyone" name, which created a mismatch when the admin UI showed the localized group name. Replace the hardcoded "everyone" in the four affected translation strings with a `%{everyone_group}` placeholder and pass the actual group name from the permission data at each call site. https://meta.discourse.org/t/395809
