Tweak the issue template for bugs (#43719)

- shorten some phrases to (hopefully) retain attention better
- move the required field up to not bore people with scrolling
- call it a bug and not an issue to further emphasize we want feature
requests in Discussions where the product managers are
- remove the default from the WSL question since not everyone does
WSL or even Windows

Release Notes:

- N/A
