Description of the new feature/enhancement

The current about dialog is pretty simple:

It'd be nice to see:

  • Terminal Icon
  • A link to GitHub (maybe w/ GitHub Icon)
  • A 'Send Feedback' link which leads here or Feedback Hub:

@zadjii-msft commented on GitHub (Jul 5, 2022):

FWIW We used to have this in the top level dropdown, but it was just generating noise.

In #789 we made it point at our GitHub issues, but at some point after that we redirected that to the FeedbackUriValue resource, which redirects to feedback hub now.

We've discussed offline the idea of putting this back somewhere, once again pointing at GitHub, and again with the in-app-feedback label (or something like that). Of course, we can just change the fwlink on our side to point at whatever, so just adding a link back should be easy enough.

I think that would be perfect! Honestly, GitHub is a way better place for feedback than Feedback Hub 😄

@DHowett commented on GitHub (Jul 14, 2022):

This might be one of those things where the stable version should direct users to the feedback hub, and the preview/dev versions should direct users to GitHub . . . @zadjii-msft, WDYT?

Motivation: I don't know if, when we become "DxD", we can rely on the large population of Stable users to have GitHub accounts.

That's a good idea, but let's start small. Let's just start with the links as @AdamSotak has it now for now, and we can sort out the fwlinks on our side in post.
