Report full step name on the bug

Project Member Reported by serg...@chromium.org, Dec 8 2016

Issue description

We currently group flakes for different steps together by taking the first word of the step name. This is necessary to remove various suffixes that are being added to the step name, e.g. "browser_tests (with patch)", "browser_tests (without patch)", "browser_tests (without patch) on Windows Intel GPU" are all reported as "browser_tests". However, for many step names we loose context by using only the first word, e.g. "commit git patch" becomes "commit", "Patch failure" becomes "Patch".

We should report full names of the steps also on the bug. This should be possible by listing all different names that are reported on the bug. This will also make it easier to see when flakes for semantically different steps are reported together.

Actually, the CL above just fixes the commit-git-patch, so I'll change the bug that it's associated with.
I wrote a proposal that will help to address this issue: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aCf915IjQX4DlOU8kiP51ORFIJGzCaAuacILWU9A1fA (sorry, internal only). I am not planning to work on this immediately since I still focus my work on Flakiness Surface, but I've decided to document my thoughts in this doc before I forget them or if someone else decides to work on this issue.

Sorry wrong, bug update. This is still available.

This will be addressed as part of issue 704839, because new design for chromium-try-flakes does not use normalized step name and reports all flake types tracked on an issue.
