Description

From: https://github.com/nextcloud/server/pull/14578#issuecomment-474252797

If there is an update available, we shouldn't show the force enable button? Cause the update might have compatibility with the new version. So actually there should only ever 2 buttons: 1) remove and 2) either enable, update or force enable.
