Summary: Taxon Label validation too restrictive

Initial Comment:
Two problems: if a submission fails to validate all taxon labels, it cannot be toggled to "ready" state. This is too restrictive because some taxon labels can never be validated. Instead, when the user tries to toggle to "ready" he should be given a warning: "We notice that x of your y taxon labels have failed to be validated against an external taxonomy. Unless it is impossible to validate these labels, TreeBASE may refuse or delay the acceptance of your data."

The other problem is that the user gets a very confusing message, saying on the one hand that the submission cannot be toggled to "Ready" (and the submit button is unavailable), while on the other hand including verbiage as though the "Submit" button is available:

You cannot change the Status of the study because Taxon Labels for analyzed data in Analysis Step cannot be validated.
Are you sure that you want to change the status of this particular study to 'Ready State'?
It means, you are ready for the review process. If yes, then press the Submit button,
else, choose the Cancel button.
Please note, pressing the Submit button will disallow you to make any further changes to this study.
However, it will be available in 'READ ONLY' mode.

Message:
Fixed as of revision 206: the suggested warning message is displayed, the
surrounding verbiage is rewritten in English and the submit button is
available.
