Whether body quotes quoted (#1862): a Markdown > block in body
contains a line (at least MIN_QUOTE_LENGTH characters once whitespace is
collapsed) that appears verbatim in the prose of quoted. GitHub's "Quote
reply" copies the quoted comment line by line with a > prefix, so a
reply built that way is addressed to the quoted comment's author as
explicitly as an @mention. Nested quotes (> > text) in body are read
too. Only the prose the author of quoted wrote counts as theirs: a quote
they included, or an error line they pasted, matches a later quote of the
same text without the reply being aimed at them (see ownProseLines).
