Here's the plan to add polymorphic comments and update related functionality:

This change introduces polymorphic comments, allowing you to comment on Photos, Plantings, Harvests, and Activities, in addition to Posts.

Key changes include:

-   **Comment Model:**
    -   Made `Comment.commentable` a polymorphic association.
    -   Added a data migration to move existing post comments to the new structure.
    -   Updated notification creation logic for polymorphic commentables.
-   **CommentsController:**
    -   Refactored to handle various commentable types using a `find_commentable` method.
-   **Ability Model:**
    -   Updated permissions for comment creation, editing (author/admin), and deletion (author/commentable owner/admin).
-   **Routes:**
    -   Added nested comment routes for Photos, Plantings, Harvests, Activities, and Posts using a `commentable` concern with shallow routes.
-   **Views:**
    -   Created generic partials for comment forms (`_form.html.haml`) and display (`_comment.html.haml`, `_comments.html.haml`).
    -   Integrated these partials into the show pages of all commentable types.
    -   Updated `comments/new` and `comments/edit` views to be generic.
    -   Relevant parent controller `show` actions now eager-load comments.
-   **Testing:**
    -   Added extensive model, controller (using shared examples), and feature tests to cover the new polymorphic comment functionality, including permissions and UI interactions for all commentable types.
    -   Updated and created factories as needed.

This fulfills the issue requirements for adding comments to multiple resource types with appropriate permissions.
