Description

It's not a serious issue but when following the [Here4 firmware update guide](https://docs.cubepilot.org/user-guides/here-4/here-4-manual) I twice noticed that after completing the upgrade, when I switched to MP's Data screen I got a little uninformative "Error" message box. We should get rid of that or make it more descriptive.

Research direction

Reproduce the workflow from the Here4 firmware update guide, then switch Mission Planner to the Data screen and observe the error dialog. Start by tracing the Data screen's handling of the completed Here4/DroneCAN GPS passthrough; done means the dialog no longer appears or clearly explains the actual failure.
