This adds a simple script for backporting pull requests to older branches. It accepts as parameters a list of pull request numbers which whose commits are to be cherry-picked. The identification of PRs currently happens by using the commit message of the merge of the PR, which should conform to the message "Merge pull request #<PR>". While the heuristic works in practice, we could instead also use the direct references from GitHub via "pull/#<PR>/head". This requires the user to have all these references fetched, though, so we can just use the current heuristic until we experience any issues with that.
