Cherry-pick of PR #15680 to 7.x branch. Original message:

What does this PR do?

This PR adds a keep-backport-label in cherry_pick script. If this flag is set then the label needs_backport of the original PR will be preserved.

Why is it important?

In many cases we want to backport to more than one branches so removing the label by default for any backporting action may remove label even if the backports are not completed yet.
