Description

The error message appears to occur if one has an incorrect **AzureWebJobStorage** setting. The error message snippet is:

```
Remote build is a new feature added to function apps.
Your function app FN-SAN-ICS-DATA-UAT-001 does not support remote build as it was created before August 1st, 2019.
Please use '--build local' or '--build-native-deps'.
For more information, please visit https://aka.ms/remotebuild
```

This is a confusing error message which has little to do with the actual issue at hand, Would it be possible for the error message to be improved?

Research direction

Reproduce the message using an incorrect AzureWebJobStorage setting and trace the remote-build error path in the Azure Functions Core Tools CLI. Confirm why this condition produces the pre-August 1, 2019 wording; done means the error explains the actual storage-setting problem and no longer gives unrelated build guidance.
