docs: handling-regressions.rst: recommend using "Closes:" tags

Update the handling-regressions guide to recommend using "Closes:" tags
rather than "Link:" when referencing fixed reports. The latter was used
originally but now is only recommended when the given patch only fixes
part of the issue, as described in submitting-patches. Briefly mention
that and also note that regzbot currently doesn't make a distinction.

Also fix a typo.
