Reopens the change from #46743 (which appears to be broken) on a fresh branch.

Original author: @daverayment

Summary

GitHub newcomers can be confused by the current duplicate resolution message, as it doesn't clearly point to the original referenced issue - see #46347 (comment). They may not realise that the #12345 in the duplicate comment is the relevant link.

This small wording update to the duplicate resolution message tightens up wording slightly and includes reference to the prior /dup #nnn comment so newcomers don't miss it.
