Add a help button next to solution type list for popup showing the type descriptions - feat0024 #16

Trying to remember what solution type to apply for a particular answer can be confusing and it is easy to select the wrong option. A help button that pops up a modal box listing the types and their descriptions.

This could be a bit tricky because the macro used to display the solution type list wraps the select element in a styled div, but it might be possible to do something in CSS to include the help button.

Against expectations CSS and JavaScript added to display a modal dialog listing the name and description fields for the solution types. Thanks in no small part to suggestion at https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_css_modals.asp
