Description

Discussed in https://github.com/elementary/installer/discussions/686

# Problem

In the custom partitioning screen, you can see a warning icon on one of the partitions but it wasn't clear to this person how to resolve the warning

# Proposal

We should probably should these types of warning messages directly in the view as we've been doing with validated entries instead of using a tooltip or other non-obvious feedback

# Prior Art
