kolaente fc216c38af fix(labels): derive label max permission from accessible tasks only
The previous hasAccessToLabel implementation ran `Get(ll)` against a
label_tasks LEFT JOIN with no ORDER BY, which meant the database was
free to pick any matching row. When a label had multiple attachments,
or when access was granted via the creator branch while the label also
had label_tasks rows pointing at inaccessible tasks, the picked row
could belong to a task the caller could not actually read.

That led to two concrete problems reported on the follow-up review of
GHSA-hj5c-mhh2-g7jq:

  1. maxPermission (exposed as the x-max-permission response header)
     could be derived from a task the caller has no access to, ending
     up as 0 or lower than the caller's real best permission on the
     label.
  2. Task.CanRead on a dangling/inaccessible task could return an
     error and surface as a 500, even though the label itself was
     perfectly readable via the creator branch.

Split the logic instead:

  * Use `Exist` for the boolean access check, using the same carefully
    grouped `And(Eq{labels.id}, Or(accessibleTask, creator))` cond.
  * Compute maxPermission by selecting the label_tasks rows whose
    task lives in a project the caller can access, then iterating
    those tasks with `Task.CanRead` and taking the maximum.
  * Fall back to PermissionRead when the access was granted via the
    creator branch and no accessible task attachment exists.
