Show "Can Merge: Yes / No" status on dashboard

Some of these need to be rebased. I wonder which ones…

Gerrit should show "Can Merge: Yes / No" status on my dashboard.

When you have thirty patches you really are not going to check every single one to see if they need action.

I don't like this idea...the dashboard is cluttered enough as it is.

Plus I think it'll encourage needless rebasing. People don't need to rebase every time a patch is a bit behind master...just when they're going to merge and there's conflicts (or if there's something in master you want you work to be based on).

I don't like the idea of putting it on the dashboard either, but could we please have a way to search by Can Merge status?

For search we would need Gerrit 2.9 which has the is:mergeable search stanza. So that is blocked on T70271: Upgrade gerrit to 2.12.

matmarex set Security to None.
