Notify the user who set auto-merge when a build fails

This is really annoying:

  • I review an MR - LGTM! 🎉
  • I edit the commit message and click 'Merge when build succeeds' 💚
  • I go about my day.
  • The build fails.
  • I don't get notified, and the MR doesn't get merged.

Not-great solutions:

  • Add a todo for the MR, so that I can easily see if it's been merged when going through my todos.
  • Keep the tab open, so I get a notification when the build fails.

I think for now I'd just like to get a todo when that happens.
