Description
When trop opens automatic backports at present it automatically tags the backports with `backport` and `BRANCH_NAME` and nothing else.
Trop should also copy back any non-`target/x.y.z` labels present on the original PR for continuity and consistency.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by tracing the automatic backport flow in this repository and find where labels are read from the original pull request and applied to backports. Confirm the existing `backport` and `BRANCH_NAME` behavior, then verify that non-`target/x.y.z` labels are preserved while target labels are excluded.
