Subject: [PATCH] fix: replace deprecated issues.update with issues.addLabels

The GitHub REST API `PATCH /repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues/{issue_number}`
endpoint used by `issues.update()` is deprecated. Replace it with
`issues.addLabels()` which uses a non-deprecated POST endpoint. Also
skip the API call entirely when there are no labels to add.
