Description

When enabling "follow blog" or "follow comments" options via Jetpack discussion settings, users need to modify additional settings separately via `wp-admin` Settings pages.

Jetpack settings are in `/wp-admin/admin.php?page=jetpack#/discussion`

Related settings are in `/wp-admin/options-reading.php`

These _Follower Settings_ should really be under Jetpack settings where the toggles are, too.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the Jetpack discussion settings entry point at /wp-admin/admin.php?page=jetpack#/discussion and the related WordPress settings at /wp-admin/options-reading.php. Identify the follower settings shown in the latter and determine how they can appear with the Jetpack toggles; done means users can manage them from Jetpack settings instead of a separate Settings page.
