[Pulp-dev] Cherry pick labeling

[Tatiana Tereshchenko]

I believe it's the responsibility of both the author and the PR reviewer.

If it's a one-time contribution from someone, then the PR reviewer is
likely the one who is aware whether the cherry-pick should be done or not.
However in the majority of cases, we have regular contributors and they are
aware of the process. Depending on the fix, they might be in a better
position to say whether it's worth cherry-picking, if the cherry-pick will
be clean or not.

Alternatively, can we automate it? When PR is open, look at the referred
redmine issue and check its tracker, if it's an "issue", mark PR as the one
to be cherry-picked, so reviewer can unset it if it's undesirable for
whatever reason.
