Mirrors the structure of the platform's own error message so the
Report.RunModal and XmlPort.RunModal request-page exceptions are
visible at a glance instead of buried in prose.

Message runs asynchronously - it is queued and shown when the calling
method ends or another method requests input - so it never pauses the
transaction and holds no lock. Only Confirm and StrMenu wait for the
user.

A modal page does not behave like Confirm/StrMenu inside a write
transaction: the platform refuses Page.RunModal (and Report/XmlPort
.RunModal with a request page, and Codeunit.Run with its return value
used) with a runtime error instead of holding the lock. The new article
documents that guard - verified against Microsoft Learn (Codeunit.Run
transaction semantics), microsoft/AL#5452, Microsoft's own Base
Application (Commit(); Page.RunModal pattern), and a live reproduction
on Business Central 26 quoted verbatim. avoid-user-prompts-inside-
transactions.md keeps its scope to the prompts the platform does allow;
"modal page" is removed from its list because that case is refused, not
stalled.
