Pre-#2524 ReadClientStateXml only logged the failure of trying to access client_state.xml, however in that commit this behaviour was changed to create a message box. This is sub-optimal experience for new users who have not yet installed BOINC, people aiming to go Folding@Home only if the poll passes and me who does development work on a secondary device where the datadir is constantly discarded.

Also the caption is set as message boxes are shown as {caption}: {message} to CLI users.

Rationale:
    Pre-7d034ac248908725d6af3cacf28bbcbd5ed6ee7e ReadClientStateXml only
    logged the failure of trying to access client_state.xml, however in
    that commit this behaviour was changed to create a message box.
    This is sub-optimal experience for new users who have not yet
