[Feature] Reword the message when adding an item to a collection #306

Description

@DraxonDraxoff

What's your idea?

Reword the confirmation message on the Manage collections pop-up, when adding an item to a collection, to increase clarity.

What problem does it solve?

When I add an item to a collection through the Manage collections pop-up interface, the text changes from "X book(s)" to "All X already here", with a red folder icon to the right.

This is confusing, and leads me to click again, since I obviously don't need to add an item that is already there. Because I've not yet clicked the Done button at the bottom of Manage collections, it's not obvious that the item is instantly added and thus causing the 'already here' confirmation to appear instantly.

Perhaps the 'already here' message could be reworded to indicate that it was 'just added' or 'now added', instead of sounding like it was already there.

The browser toast notification says "Added 1 book to _____", but this appears off to the side and is easy to miss since you're looking at the middle where you've clicked, and that middle interface changes colour and also shows updated text.

Anything else? (optional)
