When we create an issue we need to craft a very long URL to fill in the template. Windows has limits on executing a URL to another process so we post it to is.gd to create a shorturl.

Lately however we have exceeded the maximum URL size of shorturl so have removed the userconfig and the full packages list.

We now send only non-core packages names/versions and have a few other minor tweaks to the template and encoding to reduce the size of the encoded url sent to is.gd.

On systems with many packages installed we will still exceed the limit. Will consider auto-truncating the text.

Fixes #132 #129
