 The comments bubble that shows on up next to each post on post listing
 screens doesn't check for the `edit_posts` capability. This means on post
 type screens where a user has the `edit_{post_type}` capability but not
 the `edit_posts` capability, the comment bubble links to the Comments
 screen which they do not have access to.

 We should still show the comment bubble in this case but not link it to
 the Comments screen.
