BlockedOn should disable nag e-mails

Project Member Reported by groby@chromium.org, Sep 29 2016

Issue description

If you have a bug that is blocked on something else, nag e-mails on the original bug don't help. It's blocked. At the same time, I don't want to add Disable-Nags on it, because it will be unblocked at some point.

Proposal:
* If a bug is eligible for nagging, but has open blockers, it won't get nagged.
* Possibly nag the blocker instead. (Caveat around blocks that block many things)
* Once the blocker is closed, nag pretty much immediately.

Are there specific types of nags that are problematic?  I'm trying to think through the corner cases (e.g. stale owners should likely still get pinged).
