Closes element-hq/element-desktop#1828
The element web team discussed about it. We decided to remove it from desktop since it's making more harm than good in this case.

Two uses cases:

  • Element ships ED and we assure than the electron version shipped is working
  • A third party can build another version of electron and is responsible to use the correct electron version.

I think this makes sense. Perhaps we could add a comment on our conclusion from the weekly that you might get distros bundling another version of electron, but it probably doesn't make sense to warn the user in this case.

We should also check with @t3chguy but I think we can merge this for now.
