Miscellaneous

• Updated the rename page UI's field labels and descriptions to mention that the update links also updates the relative links inside the renamed page and not just the backlinks. Also moved the count displays from the field label to the field's description, where applicable, in both the rename and the copy UI, for better UI consistency.
