The save warning, the buttons, and a claim that was simply false

- The save warning is a warning: 15px, weight 500, bright amber on a
  deeper ground with a 5px rule down the side. (What Jesse was looking
  at is v0.7.8, where this line is still the small grey .ng-note —
  none of 0.7.9 has been deployed.)

- The buttons read the same on both screens: "Continue saved game" and
  "Create new game". Solitaire said "Continue Existing Saved Game" and
  "Deal New Game", the lobby said "Create game" — three phrasings for
  two actions.

- "Off in every game type" is deleted from the Optional rules note
  because it was not true. Checked against the presets rather than
  taken on trust: discardTimetabled (§6.2, a Timetabled train may be
  discarded) ships ON in all four types, not just Co-op. The note now
  says only what holds for all of them.

Stays in the unshipped v0.7.9. 877 tests pass.
