Update #3 - Improved code - New features

EDIT: Actually update #4...

This update gives server owners the ability to edit the Discord embeds to suit their liking.

Code has been cleaned up heaps since the first release which wouldn't have been possible without GitHub contributors Myles & Ben.

When you update your version of BetterReports, please make sure that you save a copy of your current config, delete it and restart the server.

You will then be required to reconfigure the plugin to your liking as there have been some major changes to the config file itself and we want to prevent issues.

Thanks for running BetterReports on your server
