Xavier Morel 0c882fc0df [IMP] runbot_merge: automation around branch deactivation
Currently deactivating a branch kinda leaves users in the dark, with
little way to know what has happened aside from inferring it from the
branch having disappeared from the main dashboard.

- surface the state of the branch in the PR dashboard (also surface
  the target branch at all so users can see if their PR is targeted
  as they expect as far as the mergebot is concerned)
- close & notify every PR to a branch being deactivated
- cancel any current staging to the branch (as a consequence of the
  above)

Closes #632

IMP: automatically close PRs when their target branch is deactivated

Leave a message on the PRs to explain, such PRs should also be reopen-able if the users wants to retarget them.
