Add macro for customizing an archiving WARNING message.
Presently, if an archive module's check_configured_cb callback
returns false, a generic WARNING message is emitted, which
unfortunately provides no actionable details about the reason why
the module is not configured. This commit introduces a macro that
archive module authors can use to add a DETAIL line to this WARNING
message.
