Subject: [PATCH] test(ci): add a throwaway workflow that checks label-run
 replacement

Do not merge. The workflow reports one check name. It fails on a push, passes when the label question is added, and is skipped when the label invalid is added. The pull request records which result GitHub shows as the latest.

+# Throwaway test. Do not merge.
+#
+# This workflow checks whether a run started by adding a label replaces an
+# earlier failed result that has the same check name on the same commit.
+# Every run reports the check name `label-run-check`.
+#
+# - opened, synchronize, reopened: the job fails.
+# - the label `question` is added: the job passes.
+# - the label `invalid` is added: the job is skipped by its `if:` condition.
