Impact
------
Ubuntu Desktop 22.04 LTS includes a new feature where systemd-oomd is enabled by default to hopefully improve system responsiveness and act before the kernel's OOM killer goes into effect.
See https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/jammy-jellyfish-release-notes/24668

However, users are never informed that their app or process has been forced to stop or why it was done. This is a common complaint.

GNOME 43 includes a notification for this so we should backport that notification to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

This adds translatable strings but translations won't be updated until the next language package update, scheduled for shortly before Ubuntu 22.04.2 is released (so approximately late January).
