• Translations for App Select Settings not working (#23908)

• Wrong button for non trial apps (#23861)

  This PR solves a bug on the marketplace that was happening with WhatsApp where it was displaying a trial button even though it didn't have a free trial period. The new verification I've added checks if the app is subscription-based and then checks if it has 0 trial days in all of its tiers. If it does, it shows a subscribe button. If it doesn't, it displays a trial button. Also, I've exposed the itsEnterpriseOnly flag as an extra measure in the case of apps like Facebook Messenger that are enterprise-only and consequently should show the subscribe button.
