fix: skip catch-up merge retry when issue has State/Question (#239) (#242)

When a catch-up PR merge fails (PR stays open after the merge command), the loop sets the issue to State/Question and comments on it. But on the next cron tick the same PR is still open with passing CI, so it tries again — spamming the issue with identical comments every minute.

Fix: before attempting a catch-up merge, fetch the issue's current labels via `_get_issue_labels()`. If `State/Question` is already set, skip the PR entirely.

Closes #239
