Subject: [PATCH] fix(ui): replace misleading permission tooltip on segment
 override variations (#6982)

When viewing segment overrides for multivariate features, variation value
inputs are read-only by design. The tooltip incorrectly suggested the user
lacked permissions. Now shows an informative message explaining that
variation values are set at the feature level.
