Comment:

 In [changeset:"52818" 52818]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="52818"
 Comments: Guard against potential PHP notices in `get_comment_author` and
 `get_comment_ID`.

 In both `get_comment_author` and `get_comment_ID`, it's possible that
 these functions are called without a comment context.  Specifically,
 `get_comment_author` can be called without passing the `$comment_ID`
 parameter, and `get_comment_ID` relies on the `comment` global if there's
 no `$comment` parameter supplied.  This leads to a PHP notice of "Trying
 to get property of a non-object."

 This change adds a check to both functions to ensure the
 `$comment->comment_ID` property is not empty before actually using its
 value.

 Follow-up to [52223].

 Props dd32.
 Fixes #54379.
