Welcome flow: remove the confusing faux "hubot" dialog

See original GitHub issue

Description

During the welcome flow, users are presented with this screen:

The little “hubot” dialog thing indicated by the pink arrows is quite likely to confuse users (“what is hubot?” “why is this ‘Fix all the things’ next to my name and avatar?”) and provides no information or discernible benefit. Thus, I recommend that this image be removed or replaced.

Version

GitHub Desktop version: 0.6.2

OS version: macOS 10.12.5

Steps to Reproduce

Perform first run with GitHub Desktop (clearing ~/Library/Application Support/GitHub Desktop to restore first run status)
Follow prompts to authenticate with GitHub.com. You’ll see the image above.

Expected behavior: No confusing images during first run.

Actual behavior: Confusing images during first run

Reproduces how often: 100%

Bravo! I really like the new approach! The label for the image, “Example Commit” makes this illustration much clearer than before. Removing the hubot thing also removes any trace of confusion. Thanks to all.
