**Summary**

Summary
Allow individual users to set default labels, similar to Organisation Default Labels.

Rationale
Personally I work a lot with labels, such as tracking status, affected area of the codebase, spam, priority, you name it.

This is already a feature for organizations, so that every repository under that organization can have a consistent baseline of labels to work with, and then only having to add specifics regarding the project.

With that in mind, I'd really like to see a similar setting for user-accounts; I can imagine that those who work like me with labelling issues and pull requests will like such an option.

I did try my best to look for potential duplicates, but couldn't find any. If it does turn out that this is a duplicate, my apologies in advance.

Thanks!
