In comments_template(), don't run hierarchical queries if comment threading is disabled.

When hierarchical=true, `WP_Comment_Query` will always fetch comments according
to the comment hierarchy, even if 'thread_comments' is disabled for the site.
This can cause problems when comment threading is disabled after threaded
comments have been recorded on the site; comments will no longer be returned in
a strictly chronological order.

We address the issue by refraining from querying hierarchically when comment
threading is disabled.

Props jmdodd.
Fixes #35378.
