Adds a guard for Intel Macs, and makes bug reports actually useful.

If you have an Intel Mac

ClickGraft now tells you before it does anything, instead of downloading
and writing over a gigabyte and then failing at the last step. Its whole job is
putting the Apple Silicon engine into a copy of HP Click, and that copy will
not run on an Intel Mac — the HP Click you already have is the right one for it.

Building for a different Mac is supported, because an IT admin on an Intel
machine preparing a copy for staff on Apple Silicon is a real thing to want.
Tick the box and carry on. Everything works except the final test-launch, since
this Mac can't run the copy in order to check it — and the finish screen says
so plainly rather than claiming a start-up that never happened.

Detection asks the hardware, not the running process, so a copy of ClickGraft
that happens to be launched under Rosetta on an M-series Mac is not
mistaken for an Intel machine.

Reporting a problem

  • The button is now on the success screen too. A copy that builds cleanly
    and then won't print looks identical to a perfect run from inside ClickGraft.
    If something is wrong, that report is the only way anyone finds out.
  • You can say what happened, in your own words, before anything is sent.
  • You can include your printer's model and firmware, if you tick the box.
    Model, firmware and paper sizes only — never the printer's name, address,
    serial number, or any password. You see the exact text before it sends.
  • Failures now tell you why. If a report doesn't go through you get the
    actual reason, plus buttons to copy it or open a GitHub issue instead.

Also

Fixes a case where the finish screen claimed a speed-up and told you to check
Activity Monitor on a Mac that cannot run the app.
