Issue 1123: New submit type: Cherry-Pick with Dependencies

We're heavy users of the Cherry-Pick submit type, occasionally a user will inadvertently submit a change from a series out of order, causing much pain.

We do not want to merge commits when submitting, but we want to cherry pick with the same level of dependency resolution that Gerrit offers for the "Merge" submit type.

In effect, if Change 3 depends on Change 2, then I should be click Submit for Change 3, putting it into a "PENDING" state. Upon the submission of Change 2, both 2 and 3 are submitted in their appropriate order.

imo, cherry-pick should work this way by default.

2.6 will include a new "Rebase If Necessary" submit type that does this.
