This depends on how we get APIs from gatway. We can give a label to the
gateway and get all the APIs with that label. If we don't specify a label
in the gateway, we need to define how we treat here. We can get all the
APIs with or without labels. Or else we can get only the APIs that do not
have any label in the API.

If we have in mind to introduce the labels to Store as well in the future,
better to have a label type in the db. This is how we have done in APIM v3.

@Krishan Wijesena <krish...@wso2.com> : I think it is better to have a
separate table for access urls. In the future, if we need to treat the
protocol of the access urls, then having a separate table would  be easy.
Also, without appending the API table to attach the label id of the API, we
should have a separate table for API to label mapping. API can have
multiple labels.

Thank you!
