Add OCI source and version labels to images (#975)

Adds `org.opencontainers.image.source` and `org.opencontainers.image.version` labels to all three image variants (`basic`, `dind`, `dind-rootless`).

- `source` lets tools like renovate retrieve release notes from the source repo.
- `version` exposes the build version on the image itself.

Both `release-tag` and `release-nightly` workflows pass `VERSION` as a build arg so the label reflects the actual git tag (or `git describe` output for nightly).
