#5911: Allow 'contributors' that can edit published handbook pages to edit them
without review

 When a user is added to a make site as the 'contributor' or 'subscriber'
 role, they're granted access to edit handbook pages, including published
 ones.

 However, if they attempt to edit the page, they're forced to 'submit for
 review' which unpublishes the existing page.

 If the user has the 'edit_pages' capability, they're able to edit and
 publish handbook pages (but not actual pages).

 HelpHub has a dedicated Editor role, perhaps that's needed here, or we
 should just let all users (other than 'subscriber') on a site edit all
 aspects of handbook pages.
