One thing extensions authors like to do on occasion is either hide or
replace built-in functionality. For example, some servers have disabled
the support menu or replaced the quick ship-it action with one that does
some custom behavior first. This change adds an official extension hook
to enable this without having to patch the code.

  • Ran unit tests.
  • Verified correctness of behavior with a small extension that hid the
    support menu and ship-it action.
  • Built docs and checked the output.

    I know this is pretty self explanatory but I think it'd still be good to say something like "Simply initialize the hook with a list of :py:attr:~reviewboard.actions.base.BaseAction.action_ids of the actions that you want to hide."
