The last time we redeployed this bot, it took ~40 minutes. This was long enough to trigger several users to ask if Skara was having issues.

I chose to make the call from the abstract superclass `PullRequestWorkItem`. This does add the check unnecessarily to the `LabelerWorkItem`, but that one is running so rarely that I don't think it matters performance wise. For correctness, I don't think it hurts checking an extra time.
