#47706: Typo in comments reply observer, new comments don't get events attached

 There's a typo in the comment's reply link observer. It's supposed to
 observe DOM changes inside `body` so it can attach the reply link event to
 new nodes. However, Core has it written as:


 {{{
 var observerOptions = {
     childList: true,
     subTree: true
 };
 }}}


 `subTree` should be `subtree`. Because of this new comments added with
 ajax don't get the event attached to them, and the reply link directs
 instead to whatever the reply link points to. While the rest of comments
 open the reply form below the comment.
