Updated description as also observed in Linux.

Given how finicky SceneBuilder can be when anything goes wrong, I think it's important to at least have a working logger, in the place reported by the About dialog. It doesn't even log to stdout, nor the log file.

Gluon: can someone address this? SceneBuilder does not log to a log file, despite saying it does in the about dialog.

I have fixed this here: https://github.com/gluonhq/scenebuilder/pull/658

It has been a bug since 2021.
