      Description

      After changes made in MDL-25394, selecting a theme is now a two step process. First the user specifies a device, then they select a theme. This is not obvious now with the pre-existing strings.

      The following strings changes will make the process clearer.

      • First page title "Theme" -> "Select Device Type"
      • First page, table title "Theme" -> "Current theme" or "Current theme for device"
      • First page, button text "Select theme" -> "Select theme for device" (possibly too long)
      • Second page title "Themes" -> "Select theme for <device type>"
      • Second page, button text "Use theme" -> "Use theme for <device type>"

      As another improvement, the navigation menu could expand another level under "Theme Selector" with a sub-item for each device type.

      In addition to this:
      it's impossible to "un-select" themes for device types and perhaps it should be something to consider. Also, clear cache redirect to first page, should remain at the same page from where it is called.
