Backend messages and field descriptions that reach the UI lose their em-dashes

Per the Microcopy rule: size and duration errors, the flavor errors, run
parameter errors, the Resources field descriptions, 401/409/400 details,
secret errors, the websocket node description and its on_connect setting.
