View submission: Updated Feature: Scheduled & Recurring Posts

This is almost exactly what I asked for in the recent mod poll. I'm thankful that enough other mods had the same idea for it to be considered. Thank you!

My thoughts were around the API. I suck at product specifications as I make them overly technical. I really would like a comment to be marked as having a hidden author on submission,

Introduce isAuthorHidden parameter to POST /api/comment.
Introduce isAuthorHidden parameter to POST /api/submit.
Introduce CanHideAuthor moderator permission. Only moderators with this permission may set the parameter to true.
Modify POST /api/distinguish to add "isAuthorHidden" parameter to modify the comment or submission. (Not convinced by this, might need a new endpoint)

When comment or submission is retrieved, if isAuthorHidden==true then change author to the subreddit name like what is done for POST /api/mod/conversations

From reddit's frontend, add a toggle to comment (good luck figuring out that, as I have no idea) and submission form to enable author hiding.
