polkit: reword 'Interactive authentication required' error

I guess the current wording of "Interactive authentication required." is
hard to grok for many users. Let's try to reword this, and say
explicitly:

1. That this is a form of "access denied" error
2. That interactive auth could remedy this
3. But that the client disabled interactive auth

I think these are the three primary elements the error msg needs to
convey. I tried to distill this in a short error string with this.

Fixes: #2081
