fix(mobile): hide empty mobile reply backlink wrapper (#1060)

getRenderableMobileBacklinks() now filters mobile backlinks down to replies that can actually render, so ReplyBacklinks only mounts mobileReplyBacklinks when there is visible content. This adds a regression test for the gap where a newly published reply exists before it receives its post number.
