 Like what we're doing in #12968 and #13357 with labels.

 Thus:
 {{{
 $pt->cap->edit_post
 $pt->cap->edit_posts
 $pt->cap->edit_others_posts
 }}}
 Etc.

 By basing them off what they are called for posts, we reduce confusion
 significantly (it's also the default) and we prevent errors like [13955]
 which caused quite a headache, and MarkJaquith and I spent maybe an hour
 tracking that down.

 Patches welcome, otherwise I'll get to it.
