Details

Reproduction is pretty easy...

1. Create an issue
2. Add a label to the issue
3. Close the issue (optional)
4. Disable "Issues" in repository settings (General)
5. Execute the workflow
6. The workflow will fail with the error above

It seems that the GitHub API is still returning the issues, even with the feature disabled, but no longer allows changes to them.

If possible, the script should detect that the feature is disabled and not fail.
Alternatively offer an option to choose what to update (issues, pull request, all, or none).

Additional information

Initially filed for label-sync action.
This cannot be solved in the action without a fix here first though
