## Description

**Acceptance criteria**

*   A client with `edit_work_packages` can add and remove work package labels through the API.
    
*   A client with `view_work_packages` can read work package labels through the API.
    
*   The API exposes labels on work packages behind a feature flag.
    
*   The labels are case-insensitively globally unique: cannot create "hello" in Project A's work package if there is already a "Hello" label in Project B's work package
    

**Tech notes:**

*   Let's go with an `acts_as_labelable` approach (similar to emoji reactions), as labels are likely to be linked to other kinds of entities later.
