docs(bug_report.md): Small grammar fixes - Data is plural, but 'there are a lot of data' sounds odd to most readers. I used the word information, instead. 'There is a lot of data' isn't grammatical. - There was an errant space before a comma. I've substituted in a semicolon for readability. These are small changes, almost pathetically so. But they make the bug report easier to read, thus reducing some friction at scale. 2018-08-22 16:35:03 +00:00			`- We realize there is a lot of information requested here.
