Description
In IJ1 an ImageStack can get tagged with slice labels (programmatically by plugins or importers). These labels are displayed in the image window label and Image > Stacks > Tools > Remove Slice Labels clears them out.
IJ2 does not handle slice labels at all. Nothing is displayed in the image window label and remove slice labels is unnecessary.
We need to tag each plane with metadata on the IJ2 side and harmonize that info across the legacy layer. Note that restructuring plugins (add/del axis, add/del data, reorder data, etc.) need to maintain this metadata.

Research direction
Start with the IJ2 ImageStack and the legacy layer described in the issue, then trace how planes and restructuring plugins are represented. Done means slice-label metadata is supported and displayed, removal is handled consistently, and add/delete/reorder operations preserve it across both layers.
