[llvm-dev] Adding new fields to bugzilla

[Hans Wennborg via llvm-dev]

I'm a little vary of adding more fields, because I think we already
have lots of fields that are never used.

Having said that, your suggestions seem reasonable, and it would be
cool if we could create tools to automate the release process a bit
more based on this.
