The backport job was previously triggered on any label activity, i.e. when the backport label was already set and a new label added, the backport would have been triggered again. That's because github.event_name is actually "pull_request_target" in this case, not "closed" or "labeled" (the event's types). Thus, this part of the condition was always true. This also means that the second part, the startsWith, was never evaluated. It had its arguments flipped and would have always been false. This was introduced in NixOS#126825, but has never really worked as intended. Resolves NixOS#199556

The backport job was previously triggered on any label activity, i.e. when the backport label was already set and a new label added, the backport would have been triggered again. (Example: #402332, where I tested that)
