fixes #11

This removes the old invalid email address from the error reporting green screen. Now, no email is shown in the dialog. Users are expected to create a GitHub issue.

This whole user experience is pretty subpar, and removing the email makes it all the more evident. Moving forward, how are they expected to know to log this in GitHub? Realistically, this is a recipe for snuffing out any remnant of issue reporting.

That said, I believe the expectation level for this software is quite low. We may not really care about all this.

Yeah that's right. Users of Solid should know that there isn't much support (we won't offer a dedicated support email) but the few people who use this, mostly DLS folks, should know that they can report issues on GitHub or on the community site. We haven't fixed any bugs for years :( so expectation is quite low. If I could easily make a note to that effect on the winforms error reporter, I would. But it's a generic palaso winforms thing that I don't want to customize at this point.
