#7445: Forums: Duplicate "login into create topic" links

When a user is viewing a forum logged out, we have a button at the top of
the page to create a topic that reads "Log in to Create a Topic" (See:
https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3934).
Additionally below the support forum table we have a banner that reads
"You must be logged in to create topics". This banner looks like a warning
and is unexpected to new users.
I'm assuming this was added because people who use the forum get confused
as to why they can't see the create new topic form.
Can we remove the bottom banner if the user is not logged in? If we are
concerned about the visibility of creating a topic, we could increase the
"Log in to Create Topic" button's prominence by updating it's style to
match wp.org's primary button styles (Blue).
Additionally, we should add `#new-post` to the login redirect url to make
sure users are presented the form after log in as opposed to being dropped
at the top of the page, which is how it currently works.
