runtime/pprof: Mention goroutine label heritability

Document goroutine label inheritance. Goroutine labels are copied upon
goroutine creation and there is a test enforcing this, but it was not
mentioned in the docstrings for `Do` or `SetGoroutineLabels`.

Add notes to both of those functions' docstrings so it's clear that one
does not need to set labels as soon as a new goroutine is spawned if
they want to propagate tags.

Updates #32223
Updates #23458
