Settings warning says when a value was replaced rather than skipped

The startup settings warning now says some values were replaced with their stricter reading, where before it said all were skipped

What

When a settings file contains values Claude Code cannot use, a dialog at startup lists them. Some of those values are locks, settings meant to restrict something. An invalid lock is not ignored; it is treated as its most restrictive value. When the list includes values like that, the dialog now says: "The values listed above were replaced with their restrictive reading or skipped as noted; the rest of the file is in effect." Before, it always said every listed value was skipped.

Why

The old message was wrong for these values. They are still in force, in their strictest form, so reading "skipped" could leave you expecting a restriction had gone away when it had not.
