Description

https://yoast.atlassian.net/browse/DUPP-31

We have a feature that shows a notice in the editor screen when you edit a post that already has a draft to republish:

A duplicate of this post was made. Please note that any changes you make to this post will be replaced when the duplicated version is republished.

It would be great if we would improve this with a link to that draft from that editing screen.

Start by locating the editor notice containing “A duplicate of this post was made” in the plugin source and trace how the related republish draft is identified. The work is done when that notice links to the corresponding draft from the editor screen; no file or test is named in the issue.
