move bug reporting instructions from wiki to www

The bug reporting instructions are pretty static, and it is nicer if bug reporters stay within the familiar QEMU web site layout. Move the page to qemu.org. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <[email protected]>

+
+Bugs can be filed at our [bug tracker](https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/), which is hosted on Launchpad.
+
+When submitting a bug report, please try to do the following:
+
+* Make sure you're reporting the bug against the [latest release](/download/#source).  If possible, please try to reproduce with the latest development tree too.
+
+* Include the full command line used to launch the QEMU guest.
+
+* Reproduce the problem directly with a QEMU command-line.  Avoid frontends and management stacks, to ensure that the bug is in QEMU itself and not in a frontend.
+
+* Include as information about the guest (operating system, version, 32/64-bit).
+
+* Do not contribute patches on the bug tracker; send patches to the mailing list. Follow QEMU's [guidelines about submitting patches](http://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch).
