Feature request: "Hide a comment" on Pull Requests and Issues

[BhaaLseN]

I was happy to see Gitea had a "Review" feature on Pull Requests similar to GitHub when I was trialling it as replacement for our current hosting, but I'm kinda-of missing the "Hide a comment" feature.

Our main use-case for this would be hiding both PR comments and Code comments that no longer apply (either as "Resolved" or "Outdated"), but it wouldn't hurt to include other options for a more complete experience (such as "Off-topic", "Spam" or "Abuse" for example; but need not limited to those reasons).

We got an external issue tracker, but I'm certain it would also make sense with the built-in tracker to apply to Issues.

Comments would be displayed similar to how GitHub handles it, allowing a reader to expand them if needed:

Comment already has a ResolveDoerID field.

We just have to add a ResolveReason witch could be a int (enum) or varchar if answers can be customized ...

TODOs:

• extend struct [Go]
• add action (similar to edit) for hide/unhide [Go]
• update template to get menue and hide if set [HTML]
• add smal migration based on struct update [ Go]

Hi @6543 , I'd like to work on this issue.

Before I get started though, it looks like currently only PR comments are resolve-able, and issue comments are not. Would it cause problems to also make issue comments hide-able/resolve-able?

yes this is a feature request for issue and pull, its about the "normal comments" :)

and you can follow the hits I describe above to get the job done :)
