Summary: "Discard all...Defer" button appears on mod. detail page

Initial Comment:
This is a clarification and restatement of bug
#1000699, which was marked "closed" but describes a bug
which is still present.

On the admindb pages, there is a checkbox labelled
"Discard all messages marked Defer" near each of the
submit buttons at the top and bottom of the page.  This
checkbox appears on the default admindb page (where the
requests are grouped by sender), and also on the
"?details=all" page (which is reached by following the
"You can also view the details of all held postings" link).

The checkboxes have no effect on the "?details=all"
page (because the form is structured differently from
the default admindb page).

The comments in Bug #1000699 says that "the 'discard
all deferred' checkbox was intended to work only on the
summary page. It's appearance on the detail pages was a
mistake that was fixed in 2.1.6"; from this I assume
that the checkboxes are not supposed to appear on the
"?details=all" page, but they're still there.

The test in Cgi/admindb.py for whether to supply the
button is "if not (sender or msgid):"; perhaps the test
should be changed to something like "if not (details or
sender or msgid):".

(I mentioned this in a comment I attached to closed bug
#1000699, but there's been no further discussion, and
the bug is still present as of 2.1.9.)
