Perspective labels not created upon change

Issue description

While neutral labels are created and updated upon every change, perspective labels are not.

Developer comments

This surfaced in the refactoring the label code for [13655, this issue]. When writing a test which uses the recompute-label command after truncating all label tables, it surfaced that the plabel table remains empty. The command does not truncated, but just replaces, so the truncate caused the realization that this might be an issue.

This opens questions. When are the perspective labels actually created? During GET requests? This could make sense because creating them just to have them might be unnecessary, since they might never be used. Also: the perspective label are not necessary for the search. So this might have been intentional.

Rejection comment

This is on purpose since only the neutral labels are necessary for the search to be fast.
