Description

For instance, after an FCP merge is successful and the proposal is accepted, if a user edits the latest FCP proposal comment and there's enough votes, mscbot will start FCP again. ([Example](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/1767#issuecomment-1420425298)).

A fix here would be to ignore edits to FCP comments if the `proposed-final-comment-period` label is not present.

Research direction

Start by locating the FCP comment edit handling in mscbot and inspect how the proposed-final-comment-period label is checked. Reproduce the case where a completed FCP comment is edited, then verify that the edit does not start another FCP when the label is absent.
