#11295: Combine 'Edit' and 'Quick Edit' links for comments

 Whilst it is occasionally necessary to visit the edit page for a comment
 rather than quick-editing it, this is rare and the existence of both links
 is redundant.

 Furthermore, Edit is the only action link which loads a new page rather
 than working on the current page, which could be confusing to first-time
 users.

 I propose combining the functionality of the two links as follows :

 * Replace both links by one, called ''Edit''.

 * Make the new link go to the edit page when JS is not available, but
 otherwise perform as Quick Edit currently does.

 * Add an ''Advanced'' link to the Quick Edit dialog, which takes the user
 to the Edit page.
