Bug Description

Currently /malone features one link for reporting a bug: "File a bug on a package" (/malone/bugs/+package). As a result, people have tried to use this page to report bugs on products (see for example bug 2979).

Instead, the context-free "Report a bug" page should offer radio buttons for reporting a bug on either a package (the default) or a product, explaining the difference between them (cf. bug 1334), with subsidiary fields enabled when the relevant radio button is selected.
