Remove the right pane of WhisperBack

Originally created by @sajolida on #7180 (Redmine)

During the discussion around #6992 (closed), the proposal of removing the right pane of WhisperBack arose. It is currently used to:

  • Link to the bug reporting guidelines
  • Display info about email address
  • Browser the documentation

I think all those three functions could be better achieved without having them in a separate pane and integrated in a linear workflow from the top to the bottom of the window:

  • The link to the bug reporting guidelines could be integrated at the top of the window, or provided in a dialog message when starting WhisperBack.
  • The information about why providing an email address could be made shorter and inserted right before the email field.
  • Browsing the documentation in the right pane is quite uncomfortable, and could be replaced by opening a proper browser.

That needs some more UI research and prototypes.
