PersonalDashboard 'Review changes' edit summaries should be plain text
Closed, ResolvedPublic3 Estimated Story Points

Description

In T415077 we parsed edit summaries so that wikitext wasn't being displayed, but we wanted to actually remove any resulting formatting when we're displaying the edit summary in PersonalDashboard. If there is a link in the edit summary, we shouldn't make it a clickable link in PersonalDashboard.
