* (bug 32020) Improve messages output by the database updaters

Patch by David Baumgarten

Comment:

Wouldn't it just make more sense to not output anything when there is no 
change? Though, extra info is somewhat better than not enough

Unfortunately, when people comment on bugs, leaving vague comments hinting at 
something that could be anything, it doesn't give any useful guidance.

I know the console isn't a particularily flexible format, but I don't think 
displaying whether something changed or not is dependent on an ellipse prefix 
is good usability at all...
