Description

#### I'm submitting a ...
- [ ] feature request

#### What is the current behavior?
We have CLI param `--allure-label` and its possible to INCLUDE labels. Like `--allure-label method=AnyMethod` and it works

#### If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal demo of the problem
But I decided to try to exclude from run tests with `@allure.manual(True)` decorator and came across a bunch of things:
1. You can't even include by label if your value (but it's default value) is a bool type. Example: if you set `--allure-label ALLURE_MANUAL=True` in CLI so it will deselect everything.
2. But I could find an interesting moment: if to write decorator like `@allure.manual('True')` and set the same `--allure-label ALLURE_MANUAL=True` in CLI -- it works and manual tests will be selected.

#### What is the expected behavior?
I want not just include labels, but also exclude. Something like `--allure-label "not ALLURE_MANUAL=True"`

#### What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?
We write tests as code and we dont need manual test cases in allure report. With this feature we will be able to run night tests and they will be closed automatically in allure testOps.

#### Please tell us about your environment:

- Allure version: 4.22.1
- Test framework: pytest==7.2.2
- Allure adaptor: allure-pytest==2.13.2

Research direction

Start by tracing how the pytest adapter parses the --allure-label CLI parameter and compares it with values from the allure.manual decorator. Check the existing inclusion behavior and determine how an exclusion expression such as "not ALLURE_MANUAL=True" should be represented. Done means boolean-valued labels work consistently and matching labels can be excluded from the run.
