🔥 hs-intake safe-to-backport

hs-intake safe-to-backport [--json] [--also-check] [-h|--help] <SRPM>
<TARGET_BRANCH> <SOURCE_BRANCH>

checks if a source package is safe to backport between branches. the vibe check of vibes checks fr fr — will this break stuff if we move it over? 👀

🙈 careful with the argument order on this one — compare-* takes SRPM SOURCE_BRANCH TARGET_BRANCH, but safe-to-backport takes SRPM TARGET_BRANCH SOURCE_BRANCH. target first, then source. don't get got.
