Replace attributes.value with attributes.placeholder across form fields in bug and feature issue templates so default guidance text acts as hint text rather than pre-filled editable text (Fixes containers#609). Also fix minor typos (Consisely -> Concisely, folow -> follow, a LLM -> an LLM) and remove a duplicate text fragment in bug.yaml.

One small grammar nit. This is also kind of related, but could we use labels: ["bug"] instead of having Bug: in the title?
Thanks!

Concisely describe the change
In
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug.yamland.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/feature.yaml, default guidance text was set onattributes.valuefortextareaform fields. In GitHub Issue Forms,valuepre-populates editable text inside input boxes, forcing users to manually highlight and delete default text whenever creating a bug report or feature proposal (Fixes #609).Replaced
attributes.valuewithattributes.placeholderacross alltextareafields inbug.yamlandfeature.yaml.placeholderprovides a hint text inside empty text fields that automatically disappears upon typing without polluting submitted markdown or requiring manual deletion. Fixed minor typos (Consisely->Concisely,folow->follow,a LLM->an LLMand removed copy-paste fragment inbug.yaml).Before screenshot / screen recording
