To support this I propose to add a configuration option in the IssueNotifier "multifixversion", with default value false, which corresponds to the current behavior with backports. When set to true, then instead of creating backports, the notifier would just pile on additional fix versions when a commit is integrated into multiple different branches.

Thanks! I've manually verified a full workflow now, but I will hold off on this until the labeling change is under control.
