Differences:
- Restrict to submit from an active branch instead of master branch
- git pull --rebase from matching remote LTS branch if available
- Add "-lts" suffix to git tag
- Assume koji buildtag name is identical to branch name

Todo: can-reuse-binary simply compares package versions to determine if
Koji builds can be shared between branches. Work is in progress to
implement ABI compatiblity testing.

This tooling is designed to automate 2 main tasks that are part of
the package maintenance workflow of Clear Linux LTS. These tasks are:
- Back-porting of a patch (e.g. security fix) to older branches.
- (Not implemented yet) Building RPMs with the intent of sharing binaries of
older LTS branches to newer branches whenever possible.
2 new targets are defined in Makefile.common.lts:
- lts-show: Show a summary of active LTS branches
- lts-backport: Attempt to fast-forward the previous active branch to the current branch
"Active" branches correspond to LTS releases that currently have support.
They are listed in a flat file "active-branches" in "lts" directory, from
oldest to newest. New entries are added by Clear Linux LTS developers as
new releases become available, and entries removed as releases become
obsolete.
Note: For CVE patching, the tool is not aware of CVE severity levels or
the minimum supported severity level of each LTS branch. For now it is
the user's responsibility to know when a CVE does not apply to older
branches and stop calling "make lts-backport".

Consider the following scenario:
* System being set-up on day 0 (by running user-setup.sh script)
* The github.com/clearlinux/common repo is cloned under projects/common
* Fast-forward in the future
* Clone a package for which there is no reachable upstream URL
(e.g. clr-power-tweaks or clr-systemd-config
* Run 'make sources'
That operation will fail because it will search for the src.rpm files starting
with the Clear Linux build determined by looking up the latest tag in the
project/common repo (and the latest is the one from day 0). So it will only find
older versions of those src.rpm, and will eventually fail.
This patch adds a line that fetches all the latest tags from the upstream
projects/common repo so the 'latest_builds' variable is *really* set to the
latest of the day.

Create a PKGS_ORPHANED list containing all orphaned package repos (i.e.
package repos for packages not listed in projects/common/packages,
excluding the local compatibility packages/common directory), and use
that list for the `clean-pkgs-dir` command.

The for-review.txt files were being generated with `git show` and thus
not compatible with `git send-email`. Use `git format-patch` instead to
fix this issue.
Also add a more prominent notice about the existence of for-review.txt
and its intended purpose.
