Add `(required)` to the `Name` label of:
Add New > Profile Fields
Add New > Profile Field Group
While we have great error messages in case users forget to add the names
of the field of field group, let's ensure that new users know that they
are required to fill up those fields to prevent any error in the first
place.
The alternatives of adding attributes for the input fields like `aria-
required="true"` and `required` (for HTML5-ready documents) instead only
benefit screen reader users. Adding the `(required)` text in the label
would benefit everyone.
