Proposal/discussion to update the SS58 format long description tooltip.

[chrisdcosta]

In the settings page the the tooltip for the SS58 format describes the format as follows:

Prefix indicates the ss58 address format in this network, it is a number between 0 ~ 255 that describes the precise format...

This refers to the original format for the SS58Prefix being of type u8. This has now been changed to u16 type allowing for more values to be created.

I propose to change the text to read:

Prefix indicates the ss58 address format in this network, it is a 16-bit integer that describes the precise format...

However, this impacts many already translated files and so it cannot be globally updated in english without creating inconsistencies with the translated versions.

It sounds spot-on.

That is fine. If untranslated, the English version will show.

PRs really welcome.

Ok I will work on it.
