Make people CC the recently created mailing list dedicated to Linux
kernel regressions when reporting one. Some paragraphs had to be
reshuffled and slightly rewritten during the process, as the text
otherwise would have gotten unnecessarily hard to follow.

Add the newly created regression mailing list finally created after it
already had been agreed on during the maintainers summit 2017 (see
https://lwn.net/Articles/738216/ ). The topic was recently discussed
again, where an idea to create a broader list for all issues was
discussed, but Linus preferred a more targeted list:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/CAHk-=wgiYqqLzsb9-UpfH+=ktk7ra-2fOsdc_ZJ7WF47wS73CA@mail.gmail.com/

Hence, the creation for that list was asked for and granted:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=212557

In the end it became regressions@lists.linux.dev instead of
linux-regressions@lists.linux.dev as 'Linux' would have been redundant
in the latter case.

A pile of small fixes:

- don't quote terms like vanilla, mainline, and stable, unless in they
  occur in places where readers new to the kernel might see them for the
  first time

- make people rule out that vendor patches are interfering if they face
  a regression in a stable or longterm kernel they saw in a vendor
  kernel for the first time

- s/bugs/issues/ in a selected spots

- exchange two headlines that got mixed up somehow

- add a few links to some of the steps in the guide

- Greg mentioned sending reports to the stable mailing list is
  sufficient, so remove the "CC stable maintainers" bits

- fix a few typos and mistakes in the text, with a few very small
  improvements along the way
