Tonya Mork 3442f776f3 Comments: Fix PHP Notice "trying to get property of non-object" in comments_open() and pings_open().
The post for the comments or pings is retrieved by `get_post()`. If the post exists, `get_post()` returns an instance of `WP_Post`; else, it returns `null`.

In both `comments_open()` and `pings_open()`, the returned value from `get_post()` is used without checking if the object returned, if the post exists. When the post does not exist, the following notices occur:

{{{
PHP Notice:  Trying to get property 'comment_status' of non-object in .../src/wp-includes/comment-template.php on line 1244
}}}

and

{{{
PHP Notice:  Trying to get property 'pings_open' of non-object in ../src/wp-includes/comment-template.php on line 1274
}}}

This commit fixes these notices by checking if the post has a non-falsey value before using it as an object to set the `$open` state. As the return from `get_post()` will only be an object or `null`, the truthy check is appropriate and slightly more performant.

Tests added to validate the fix.

Follow-up to [1964], [40666].
