Seems that bztools does not differenciate the two ESR releases

Description

In bug 1180419, Marco was notified with this information:

== Bugs Tracked for ESR31 ==
* https://bugzil.la/1180419 -   - (assigned to Marco Bonardo [::mak])

However, the bug was only affecting ESR38 and never ESR31. I guess this tool does not handle correctly the period when we have two ESR releases running in parallel.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the ESR31/ESR38 case described in issue 12 using Bugzilla bug 1180419, then trace the entry point that generates the tracked-bugs report. Check how concurrent ESR releases are distinguished and add coverage for this two-release scenario. Done means the bug appears only under the affected ESR release, not ESR31.
