Remove .button styling from _default_wp_die_handler()

[ryan]

These styles seem to be a left over from the install styles. Given that wp_guess_url() is not a reliable way to determine the siteurl from a front page load and that core doesn't seem to need these styles for any of its wp_die() messages, let's remove them.

Plugins might be more likely to include Go Back type buttons, so maybe we should preserve some styling. The image gradients need to go though because wp_guess_url() doesn't really work here.

Use css3 gradients instead of images and call it good enough?

To test:

• Remove wp-config.php
• Visit wp-admin/install.php
• Note the "Create a Configuration File"
• Make the button pretty without using images and wp_guess_url()

Yes, my intention was for us to revisit all our button styles and change to CSS3 so this sounds like a perfect first step.
