Improve Gitlab Integration

Hi @jayfk and @samdroid-apps Thank you for providing a Gitlab integration in the first place we are total fans. The question I have is whether you accept changes to it.

Case in point would be a flag to allow Gitlab to merge_when_pipeline_succeeds and another flag for should_remove_source_branch. We currently have a custom made script that does exactly that because we don’t want to manually merge changes that pass all tests.

The problem here would be that these changes are somewhat specific to Gitlab. I could imagine an os.env kind of flag. Let me know what you think.

Thanks, Kai

@kairichard Sure, go ahead.

You probably just need to

• add the parameters to the config file
• pass the config to the create pull request call here: https://github.com/pyupio/pyup/blob/master/pyup/bot.py#L418-L423
• update the gitlab integration
• update the parameters the github integration takes

You probably knew all this already, but I’ve found that the bot code becomes pretty hard to navigate if you are not familiar with the code base.

@jayfk if you don’t mind we can take a shot at it as we have a lot of work already done. What do you think?
