Subject: [PATCH] Edit Comment screen: remove the "View Comment" button
 (actually a link) from the publish meta box. Mimic the "Edit URL/Permalink"
 UI from the Edit Post screen to show the comment link below the screen title,
 but make it an actual link, not a button.

Props ocean90, DrewAPicture, wonderboymusic.
Fixes #19168.
