Because "1Password", "Dashlane", and "LastPass" are all registered US trademarks, it's best to show the ® symbol for registered trademarks instead of the ™ symbol, which is for unregistered or registration-pending trademarks.

This commit only changes the en-US locale.

Test Plan: I don't think there are any tests implicated here, but I really don't know that for sure.

Because "1Password", "Dashlane", and "LastPass" are all *registered* US trademarks, it's best to show the circle-R symbol for registered trademarks instead of the superscript-TM symbol, which is for unregistered or registration-pending trademarks.
