If the private message portlet is meant to only be used on a private page, then I should see a message that tells me to put it on the correct page

Currently the My Contacts and Friends' Activities portlets from the social-networking plugin uses a message to let the user know that the portlets are improperly placed. The Private Messaging portlet should have the same method to indicate to users where the portlet is meant to be placed and used.

This idea came from SOS-1465.

PASSED Manual Testing using the following steps:

1. Add an SO site
2. Add a Private Messaging portlet onto the SO site home page

Fixed on:
Tomcat 7.0 + MySQL 5. Portal ee-6.2.10.
Plugins 6.2.10 Git ID: d759754e0f62c97899c4be175acf2bee52e3838a.

The Private Message portlet now displays a message telling the user that it must be deployed on a private page.
