3011: allow closing requests but not editing

What version are you running?
1.7.9

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Grant 'change request status' but NOT 'can edit request' to a user.
2. Try to close a request as that user.

What is the expected output?
Request is closed, and user closing the request can enture a close message (or at least can provide one when closing via API).

What do you see instead?
From web page: nothing happens.
From rbt: "rbtools.api.errors.APIError: You don't have permission for this (HTTP 403, API Error 101)"

Please provide any additional information below.
I would really like to be able to designate certain users as 'merge masters', however I do *not* want to grant these users permission to arbitrarily make changes to other users' requests (e.g. branch, description, etc.). Right now there does not seem to be a way to do this.

This was fixed in 1.7.17. Can someone with permissions please close this bug?
