cros tryjob: support applying gerrit patches to Chromium browser repos

Project Member Reported by vapier@chromium.org, Oct 20 2017

Issue description

when Chromium migrated from rietveld to GoB, we didn't update our patching logic to match, and no one has noticed/asked :)

we might have to restore part of this revert (PatchChromeStage):
  https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/612822

i guess we'll need to add a dedicated option again (-G?) since, from a Gerrit CL # alone, there's no real way to determine where we should apply that patch.  Chromium & Chromium OS checkout many of the same repos.
 
To help evaluate priority, what are the use cases for this?

My use case is modifying some telemetry benchmarks from chrome os, which are specified in chromium (src/tools/perf/...). Without the ability of patching chromium, it's not possible to test with trybots.

from chrome os -> for chrome os

Aviv, I ripped out the Reitveld support as unused, but even it it was still in place it wouldn't help here.

+stevenjb can you help assess the priority or impact here?
Could this be what is preventing my patches for  issue 732579  from succeeding? (Specifically, the pfq master needs to be able to modify CHROMEOS_LKGM in the chromium repo).

If so, then I would say it is very important... otherwise I don't know.

doubtful. this is for devs to run remote tryjobs with uncommitted patches in gerrit or local repos.

Can this be prioritized?
We (toolchain team) often have chrome patches that we want to test but right now the only way is an hacky epatch in chrome ebuild.
