I quite like the way Qt does it, in the commit message footer you add 
for example 
"Pick to: 6.4 6.2"
and after the your change is merged to dev the bot creates MR for
the relevant branches.

Nate brought up label + milestone. Please correct me but you can only have one 
milestone I think. I guess it would need to work something like,
- if has "Cherry-pick" label and milestone LTS -> pick to LTS and stable
- if has "Cherry-pick" label and milestone stabel -> pick to stable

Do we have situations where we pick to more than stable and latest LTS?
The only thing that would come to my mind are security fixes after the
normal support period.
