Comment (by costdev):

 Thanks for testing @jorbin!

 So we have a few instances in which a user should be informed of a
 plugin's activation:

 1. After clicking `Activate` in a plugin's card.
 2. After clicking `More details` to open a plugin's modal, then clicking
 `Activate`.
 3. After clicking on a dependency's `More details` to open the
 dependency's modal, then clicking `Activate`.

 If the notice for modal-based activation is displayed in the modal, this
 can inform the user with the same message. However just note that if a
 user closes the modal without reading the notice, they'll have no way to
 read it again, which is where a top-of-the-page notice can be useful. What
 do you think?

 In-plugin-card notices are already supported in Core for error messages so
 this should be straightforward enough to implement.
