**What this PR does / why we need it**:
We have the `__line__` and `__timestamp__` functions currently available in the `line_format` stage but not in the `label_format` stage. This PR fixes that.
Specifically `__timestamp__` can be valuable in a label because you can do things like
```
label_format hour_of_day=`{{__timestamp__ | date "15"}}`
```
To be able to conditionaly select log lines based on the hour of the day they were created, this can be useful for conditional alerting as an example.
**Which issue(s) this PR fixes**:
Fixes grafana#6402
**Special notes for your reviewer**:
<!--
Note about CHANGELOG entries, if a change adds:
* an important feature
* fixes an issue present in a previous release,
* causes a change in operation that would be useful for an operator of Loki to know
then please add a CHANGELOG entry.
For documentation changes, build changes, simple fixes etc please skip this step. We are attempting to curate a changelog of the most relevant and important changes to be easier to ingest by end users of Loki.
Note about the upgrade guide, if this changes:
* default configuration values
* metric names or label names
* changes existing log lines such as the metrics.go query output line
* configuration parameters
* anything to do with any API
* any other change that would require special attention or extra steps to upgrade
Please document clearly what changed AND what needs to be done in the upgrade guide.
-->
**Checklist**
- [x] Documentation added
- [ ] Tests updated
- [x] Is this an important fix or new feature? Add an entry in the `CHANGELOG.md`.
- [ ] Changes that require user attention or interaction to upgrade are documented in `docs/sources/upgrading/_index.md`
