#8179: Enable reporter editing of ticket descriptions via DefaultTicketPolicy

-------------------------+--------------------
 Ticket reporters on WordPress.org Trac instances cannot edit their own
 descriptions. Corrections require a contributor with elevated permissions.

 Trac's `DefaultTicketPolicy` (1.3.2+) permits authenticated users with
 `TICKET_APPEND` or `TICKET_CHGPROP` to modify descriptions on tickets they
 reported. Edit history is preserved.

 Reference: https://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/12719

 Proposed change:  add `DefaultTicketPolicy` to `permission_policies` in
 `trac.ini`.

 This affects any contributor who cannot self-correct their own ticket
 descriptions without assistance from a contributor with elevated
 permissions.
