Stop empty external auth classification labels overriding default labels

Most of the project templates bundled with GitLab have an empty string
set for `external_authorization_classification_label` in their
`project.json`. When imported this overrides the default label set on
the instance, causing the label to appear empty.

This change sets empty labels to nil during import, allowing the
default label to override it and be applied to the project.
