Problem

Doctor reads issue files through normalized in-memory labels, so closed issues that still carry an open workflow label (open, ready, active, blocked) in frontmatter are invisible to audits and doctor-fix.

Goal

Report workflow label/state mismatches during pnpm backlog:doctor and relabel them via pnpm backlog:doctor:fix --apply.

Acceptance Criteria

Doctor warns on closed issues with open workflow labels (and open issues with closed labels)
--strict fails when mismatches remain
doctor-fix plans and applies relabel to done/abandoned (or open for open issues)
Unit tests cover detection and rendering

Validation Commands

node --test scripts/issue-sync-lib.test.mjs
pnpm test:scripts

Implementation Summary

Doctor scans raw frontmatter labels for workflow/state mismatches (closed+open label, open+done/abandoned). doctor-fix --apply relabels to done/abandoned or open; --strict fails while mismatches remain. Added planWorkflowLabelFixes helpers and unit tests.
