Subject: [PATCH] Respect approval status when determining comment page count
 in `comments_template()`.

Since 4.4, when fetching the first page of comments and the 'newest' comments
are set to display first, `comments_template()` must perform arithmetic to
determine which comments to show. See #8071. This arithmetic requires the
total comment count for the current post, which is calculated with a separate
`WP_Comment_Query`. This secondary comment query did not properly account for
non-approved comment statuses; all unapproved comments should be part of the
comment count for admins, and individual users should have their own
unapproved comments included in the count. As a result, `comments_template()`
was, in some cases, being fooled into thinking that a post had fewer comments
available for pagination than it actually had, which resulted in empty pages
of comments.

We correct this problem by mirroring 'status' and 'include_unapproved' params
of the main comment query within the secondary query used to calculate pagination.

Merges [36040] to the 4.4 branch.

Fixes #35068.
