Description
We get occasional bug reports like #2366 which are from users with very outdated browsers. We should identify these at the error boundary and prompt the user to update their browser instead of requesting they file an issue.

Research direction
Read the error-boundary implementation and compare its handling with the outdated-browser report in issue #2366. Trace where the current request to file an issue is shown, then determine how outdated browsers should receive an update prompt instead; done means that the affected users see the update guidance rather than the issue-filing request.
