{{{
#!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="60937"
REST API: Allow comment content to be updated to empty when
allow_empty_comment filter returns true
This filter was already respected during comment creation, but not
updates. This was inconsistent between POST and PUT, and prevented erasing
content of moderated comments via the API without deleting the entire
object.
Props adamsilverstein, kadamwhite, davidbaumwald, mukesh27,

Fixes #64049.
