Forum profiles: Limit "Edit WP.org" link

Description

The forums profile has a link to edit a users WP.org profile (introduced as a profile link in [7908], then updated in [8265] to be a link to profile editing), very few individuals have access to this feature, and none of the forum moderators/admins (as far as I'm aware).

Personally, I keep mis-clicking this link when I mean to edit a forum profile.

Limiting who can see that link to users who can actually use it makes sense.
