Entities exist of type "Entity type" and "Bundle label" could be more helpful

When importing config that would affect existing entities, the message:

Entities exist of type <em>Paragraph</em> and <em>Paragraph type</em> <em>Listing</em>. These entities need to be deleted before importing.

could be more helpful in providing the machine name of the entity bundle in the message. This would provide the site maintainer with a simply reminder of the bundle name so they could easily delete the entities of that bundle type without having to manually look it up. In some/many cases the bundle label doesn't match the bundle machine name.

I would propose:

Entities exist of type <em>Entity type label</em> and <em>Bundle type</em> <em>Bundle label (bundle_name)</em>. These entities need to be deleted before importing.

which would look as follows using the example above:

Entities exist of type <em>Paragraph</em> and <em>Paragraph type</em> <em>Listing (paragraph_listing)</em>. These entities need to be deleted before importing.

The site maintainer could simple run

drush entity:delete paragraph --bundle=paragraph_listing if necessary.

I'll provide a merge request for this but interested in what other people think?
