 The comment moderation notification email provides quick ways to moderate
 comments, which can save time and hassle.

 Sadly, the "in reply to" information, which is available on the moderation
 page, is missing from these emails, so moderators lack some of the context
 of the comment.

 As you can imagine, the meaning of a comment is vastly different when it
 relates to the post, as opposed to some stupid comment that someone made,
 and may make a difference to the moderation outcome.

 Therefore, at least when reply threading is enabled, moderation emails
 should include the "in reply to" comment link and author name.

 While we're at it, both the moderation page and email would benefit from
 the actual replied-to comment to be shown, in order to avoid the hassle of
 another page load to enable proper moderation.

 This can be done in combination with
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/33627, where every change done on
 the moderation page is also reflected in the emails.
