Add --label flag to search custom label names #1085

Description

@fuleinist

Problem: The CLI hardcodes "Good First Issue" as the search label, so users cant search for other helpful labels like "help wanted" or "first-timers-only".

Solution: Add a --label (or -l) flag that lets users specify a custom label name to search for. Default remains "Good First Issue" for backward compatibility.

Use case: Contributors looking for issues labeled "help wanted" or "good-first-issue" in other languages/localizations.

Example: good-first-issue --label help-wanted or good-first-issue -l enhancement

This is a small, well-scoped CLI enhancement with a clear user benefit.
