New issue 3695 by [hidden email]: Redesign AboutBox
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3695

Beside the Pharo number we should display VM infos
in the about box too:

      Smalltalk isRunningCog

We should also display the JIT version (if running Cog):

      Smalltalk getSystemAttribute: 1008

It is also confusing that SmalltalkImage>>aboutThisSystem
uses a "LongMessageDialogWindow" for the about box although
there is a class "AboutDialogWindow" (which is not used) in
the image.
