Merge branch 'fix/cross-project-labels-project-reference' into 'master'

Fix cross-project label ref used with invalid project

When cross-project label reference was used with invalid project reference, `nil` was assigned to project variable which later caused an exception.

Closes #15168

See merge request !3811
