Added an alert when a file transfer succeeds or fails. +Improved the alert combining code so it handles those alerts, and +simplified it a lot, and made it more efficient. + +Also made the text of action alerts change from present to past tense when +the action finishes. To support that I wrote a fun data type, a `TenseString` +that can be rendered in either tense.
