When an error occurs during the execution of the backport action, we currently just comment on the original PR with the failure message. In most cases the failure is a git conflict, which needs to be resolved manually. The backport action could have already created the backport branch and opened a PR for it (although without any new commits). This would reduce the amount of manual work needed.

GitHub does not allow creating pull requests without any commits (i.e. no diff between head and base). Instead, we can do what is suggested in #386.
