Pull Request for Issue #18835.

Summary of Changes

When Joomla is installed in the same database with existing tables with the same prefix as set in the installation, it will rename the existing tables by adding the prefix "bak_". While this was an option in the past, at least in 4.x this has been done silently. This PR adds a hint describing this behavior.

Testing Instructions

Do the installation, read the text below the prefix field.

Actual result BEFORE applying this Pull Request

No text below prefix field.

Expected result AFTER applying this Pull Request

Text below prefix field. ?

cc @tecpromotion this needs to be coordinated with the TTs as this touches an Installation language string which needs to be merged back into the CMS ideally before the release for as many translations as possible.
