Description
When we merge an insertion to a VS branch it would be nice if all older insertions to that branch were automatically closed.
Relevant API is probably [Pull Requests - Update](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/git/pull-requests/update?view=azure-devops-rest-6.1). We might be able to set the `status` to `"abandoned"`.

Research direction
Start by locating the existing flow that merges an insertion to a VS branch. Read the linked Azure DevOps Pull Requests - Update API, especially the pull request status field. Done means older insertions to that branch are automatically closed or abandoned after a newer insertion is merged.
