Liquid `ifversion` (and `elsif`) should not always be true

The Liquid ifversion condition 'discussions-closable' includes all possible versions and will always be true.

If a repository administrator or project maintainer enables {% data variables.product.prodname_discussions %} for a repository, anyone who has access to the repository can create and participate in discussions for the repository. If an organization owner enables {% data variables.product.prodname_discussions %} for an organization, anyone who can view the source repository can create an organization discussion.

Repository administrators and project maintainers can manage discussions and discussion categories in a repository, and pin discussions to increase the visibility of the discussion. Moderators and collaborators can mark comments as answers, lock discussions, and convert issues to discussions. Similarly, for organization discussions, the role of a user in the source repository determines how a user can interact with organization discussions. For more information, see "[AUTOTITLE](/organizations/managing-user-access-to-your-organizations-repositories/managing-repository-roles/repository-roles-for-an-organization)."
