Bring the issue forms and PR template up to date with 2.5

Bug report: current placeholders, a scan method dropdown, a field for the
crash log, install options the app can actually tell apart, required
checks. The field ids are unchanged, so the "Report on GitHub" prefill
still works; CrashLog now sends one of the form's install options, which
it never did before, so that field arrived empty.

Feature request: the areas list matches the app as it is (Insights,
Changes, start screen, palettes, shortcuts, languages).

PR template: What / Why / How tested / Screenshots and a checklist taken
from CONTRIBUTING (all translation files, where settings and shortcuts
go, dotnet test).

config.yml: the website line no longer promises a live preview.
