Description

Issue Description

We need to provide the way for contributing with content for users without edit post permissions. On DevHub it's been handled with comments functionality and it looks like a good start for HelpHub as well.

Do not confuse this with #7. This is a completely different functionality.

Sometime in a far future, it is planned to replace this functionality with direct content editing on the frontend (with revisions and Gutenberg), which would be replicating Codex' editing experience. For now, we are going to settle with collecting feedback through commenting system.

Any brilliant idea how to do this in a different way?
