Add ability to look up commits by crbug label and other params

Project Member Reported by s...@chromium.org, Oct 10 2016

Issue description

I feel like you really want to able to group commits, not by the person that submitted them, but by the project/feature they're contributing towards, so we know which grouping of things made it into which release.

For example, my team puts "Sync-V2" on all our USS bugs. It would be really neat if I could send a url (that contains the commits filtering to "Sync-V2" label filtering) to my PM when they ask which milestone a given change made it into.

I picked crbug label as simply the only good proxy for grouping commits by feature that I know of. There maybe other much more elegant solutions out there. Maybe a crbug.com search query would more flexible. Or a regex that runs on commit messages and/or files in commits.

+wfh@ as FYI, since this was something they were interested in a while ago, and I said I'd try to do it - and continue to think about it, but just haven't had a chance to implement.

To implement something like this will likely mean labeling crbugs/ as commits are detected as shipped - right now I store the bugs associated with the commits, but keeping track of the labels associated with bugs, that are associated with commits, would be a lot of work.  Thus applying a label (something like Shipped-Canary-55) in crbug, and making it easy to query on, is what I'll try to think about.

There are some caveats even to this approach, e.g. how much granularity we should apply (do we want to specify exact version, channel, platform?) so I'll try to gather input here in advance of implementation - though admittedly that may still take a little while :|

This would probably be addressed via porting Chrome Dash's "Dashboards" functionality wholesale.  We'll also want to ask the Monorail team to prioritize querying by hotlists, as more people are using those.

Updating issue title to make it consistent with other feature requests.

No longer on the Chrome team, e-mail me @google.com if any attention still required from me here, otherwise good luck!
