Feature request: define labels for PRs

[hugovk]

It would be nice to be able to define labels for PRs.

This would help organising PRs and allow other actions/bots to act on them.

For example, I'd like dependencies and automerge.

It would be good to allow different labels for the autoupdater and other PRs.

I don't think custom labels will be a thing, or at least not for free tier. maybe a [pre-commit.ci] label without configuration, but I don't think that helps your use case

[hugovk]

Just a plain pre-commit.ci label would be useful for my use case, I could configure Mergify to accept that as well as automerge.

https://github.com/TimonVS/pr-labeler-action could do this for you.

In the config file you could create a pre-commit.ci label with:

pre-commit.ci: ['pre-commit-ci-*']

@danyeaw Thanks for the hint. While it would be awesome for pre-commit.ci itself to be able to add labels for its autoupdate, that workaround may work.

I am using skip-changelog label on a huge number of repositories and I do not see any reason where the pre-commit autoupdate would not fit into that category.
