I'm not sure how to use Debian BTS for this type of thing.

You could use git-notes to flag particular commits for cherry-pick, or
maintain a scratch (not QA'd) branch just with cherry-picks that you can
throw away when you're ready to do a proper branch for stretch.

Or if you're planning to also cherry-pick for Ubuntu stable releases,
you can use Launchpad, link the Debian bug, and use Ubuntu stable bug
tasks for the tracking. This won't track when you have landed something
into stretch though.

HTH,
