The push-for-review workflow

[Gustavo Niemeyer]

Hey folks!

I was just wondering today.. how long do we take every time we have to
go over the full procedure of getting a review.. push branch, create
bug, change status, milestone, assignee, link branch, go to branch,
propose for merge, etc?

What about.. 20 seconds!

That's just a test for push-review. Please ignore.

That's really it.. no command line options so far either.  I'll add
support for pre-req branches though, and will publish the tool to some
consumable location.

As a side effect of this, the lpad library is _significantly_ improved:

These improvements will be useful for the store work as well.
