Suggestions for the Submitting Issues page

Problem

During the OpenFOAM Workshop 2019, it was noted that several people are not sure how to submit (good) bug reports, mainly due to not knowing how to report system-related technical information. @bgschaid @mark

Suggested fixes

Patches for page "Submitting Issues"

I had a look into the page Submitting Issues and I added a bit more information, trying to keep the text short and the instructions precise and platform-independent. Since I cannot open merge requests or even fork the repository, I attach a set of patches here (they are for the Wiki repository, anyway). These patches are based on d8c4d7 and I have tested them locally.

Add link on openfoam.com

A link to the page Bug Reporting is very prominent both in the side menu and in the "Code" drop-down. 👍

However, the statement:

Bug and issue reporting is provided via the repository hosting site https://develop.openfoam.com described here

leads to a generic page, while it should lead to the page Submitting Issues.
