 1. Don't force theme authors to pass the page argument value to
 `get_comment_link()` in their comment walker. We can just do it ourselves
 behind the scenes. This simplifies things a lot.

 2. Replace `get_comment_link()`'s second parameter with an `$args`
 allowing you to pass things like `type` (it's backwards compatible).
 Basically if you know you're going to be passing a `type` to
 `wp_list_comments()` (for example `comment`) and need to use
 `get_comment_link()` outside of the loop (i.e. a custom recent comments),
 pass the same `type` to `get_comment_link()` and you should end up with a
 proper page number. Note the default recent comments widget will still
 produce the wrong page numbers if you pass a `type` to
 `wp_list_comments()`.

 3. Change number 2 required updating `get_page_of_comment()` to support
 all these extra args.
