#4821: Support forums: Improve the report functionality

Initially implemented in r7605, the report topic link is a bit close to
the subscribe link, and easy to accidentally click, there's also a few
other shortcomings, relating to those who manually add the `modlook` tag,
and uncertainty around why a topic has been reported at times.
The attached patch aims to resolve this by detecting when the `modlook`
tag is manually added to a topic.
It also converts the current link solution to a form, with a reason field
(that is required), this makes it harder to accidentally report a topic,
and also makes users have to say specifically why they choose to report a
topic.
The most common reasons are available as simple selections, but I've opted
to allow an option named `Other` where the user can provide the input them
selves, this should cover any missed scenarios, and not hinder the
reporting of a topic if a reason doesn't "feel right" for the one that
wants ot report it.
