Configure reviewers groups

A "Stash" icon will appear on the top right corner of chrome window. Click on it. It will ask you to add a json to describe which group you want to create with which reviewers.

Json format is as follow :

{ "groups": [ { 
    "groupName":"first group name", 
    "reviewers": ["first reviewer name or email"] 
  },
  { 
    "groupName":"second group name", 
    "reviewers": ["first reviewer name or email", "second reviewer name or email"] 
  } ] }

After that when you will go to pull request creation page or update page a dropdown will appear after reviewers list with a list of groups you defined.

Note: the extension will make a bitbucket server api request to find reviewers. It will simply send the string you added in the reviewers array as search term. Normally if you add email or username as recommanded API should return only one user. You can also enter a name but in this case if the API return more than one user, only the first one will be added.
