Improve "Local Changes" label on iOS and Android #10701

Per the comment on p5T066-11v-p2, we have feedback that users do not understand the Local Changes label. Which is not too surprising.

We improved the Offline experience a lot with the recent project, but can we come up with more user friendly language for this scenario?

Creating a task as we need to make sure we understand exactly which issues fall under 'Local changes' before making a change in language which might make the wrong promise to the user.

The "Local changes" label came up in 15.1 beta testing. I couldn't figure out how to get rid of the "Local changes" label for a post in the Posts list on a self hosted site. (4m37s)

We have another user who is very confused by this on Android:

How to remove local changes is very confusing on Android since we expect users to go to the history and restore past revisions and update. The user also mentions the label comes up almost everytime he comes to a post and leaves it (even without edit). I'm not replicating this issue, but it's not the first time we hear it.

User has a Pixel 4a using the latest version of the app.

This came up in an app review:

I have local changes in the app that I want to discard and reload so I can see the changes I've done through a web browser. There is no clear way to discard my local edits of the page, so I can no longer use the app editor at all.
