December 2024: Focused bug fix delivering a clarity enhancement for the wmllint tool in wesnoth/wesnoth. Corrected the misleading -m flag description in both GUI and CLI, updating the help text to reflect that the flag warns about tags missing the 'side=' key.

Impact: Improves correctness and user guidance, reduces potential misuse and support requests, and strengthens cross-component consistency between GUI and command-line tools.
