This is supported by default: you can enable the notifications from
your user profile, e.g.:

  https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/user/

Look at the 'notify?' column in the "Linked email addresses" field. You
also have the events API, e.g.:

  https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/api/events/

This would let you build your own tooling around notifications
including patch state. This was added in Patchwork v2.0 but I recommend
v2.1, which resolves important performance issues.
