Is your feature request related to a problem?

It seems redundant to have both Version and About EdgeTX views with overlapping info.

Describe the solution you'd like

Suggest merging them together, accessed from the About EdgeTX button (remove Version tab from radio settings).

I have no real preference for one or the other. Other than one being less detailed, and thus less information overload when you just want to know the version you are running, or the QR code for the website. You could argue that with it being on the splash screen that isn't necessary, but that only applies to a non-custom splash screen (and colorlcd 🤔). One thing that is conspicuously absent from the color UI which the B&W UI does have is the URL as a string... for those of use who are not glued to our smartphones ;)

The only think I will insist on is consistency... if it's done on colorlcd, it needs to be done for B&W also.

  1. We have a little space here so I'd add CODENAME under VERS if build is release or RC (same scheme as in splash)

  2. Since QR code is in color. Have you tested it low contrast themes? Does it work well? If not plain B&W with high contrast ratio will be better.
