Description

As done for the Posts list in #38677, the Quick Edit link should be a button. Currently, it uses a JS-generated role="button" attribute, but marking it up directly as button is preferable.

Also, it would benefit from an aria-expanded attribute to communicate to assistive technologies the expanded / collapsed status of the Quick Edit form. This would bring it in parity with what has been done for the Posts list Quick Edit in #38677 / [42725].

Accessibility: Change the terms "Quick Edit" link to a button.

For better accessibility and semantics, user interface controls that perform an
action should be buttons. Links should exclusively be used for navigation.

Fixes #43382.

Comments: Open comment quick edit on double click.

In [42767] the quick edit button changed from a link to a button. This caused the jQuery code that selects on a link to no longer work. This commit restores the previous behavior.

Fixes #47572.
See #43382, #38677.
