Add --label flag to issue create and pr create #36

Feature Request

Add a --label flag to fj issue create and fj pr create so labels can be assigned at creation time instead of requiring a separate fj issue edit <id> labels --add step afterward.

Current workflow (two steps)

fj issue create "My issue" --body "description"
# ok: Created issue #42
fj issue edit 42 labels --add "bug" --add "enhancement"

Proposed workflow (one step)

fj issue create "My issue" --body "description" --label bug --label enhancement
fj pr create --title "Fix thing" --label bug --label fix

API support

The Forgejo API already supports this. The CreateIssueOption struct accepts a labels field (array of label IDs), and CreatePullRequestOption accepts labels as well.

Related upstream work

• forgejo-contrib/forgejo-cli#334 - Merged PR that added repo label commands and issue edit labels, but did not add --label to create commands
• forgejo-contrib/forgejo-cli#311 - Earlier closed (not merged) PR for label management, also did not cover create-time labels
• forgejo-contrib/forgejo-cli#280 - Original issue requesting label support (closed after #334 merged)

Implementation notes

Since the API takes label IDs (not names), the CLI will need to resolve label names to IDs before creating the issue/PR, similar to how milestone names are resolved.
