doc: move some info from all --help messages, online
* src/system.h (emit_ancillary_info): Link to the bug report email addresses and general help URLs online rather than specifying directly. This give us greater scope to present better info like describing the difference between bug-coreutils@gnu.org and coreutils@gnu.org etc. * tests/misc/help-version.sh: Remove the check for bug-coreutils@gnu.org * tests/local.mk: Remove the no longer needed PACKAGE_BUGREPORT.
