Parent comment edit tracking
We need a way to track the parent comment. Often the author would see the bot comment and fix the link. Or they'd put in a broken link, and fix it later, still leaving the mobile part.
The easiest thing would be to run [an updated version of] got_one() on the new comment text, substitute links as usual, edit or delete our comment depending on the number of substituted links.
The challenge is to listen to the comment stream and check for parent comment edits at the same time. One way is to have a separate process do the tracking, and use praw-multiprocess to limits the API usage rate.
