Any subsystem can create an object label reference for its owning portal
using the routine operation Label->Create SubSystem Label.


This is very useful in cases where a parent portal has been dynamically
copy/pasted and a portal contained therein needs to also be referenced using
an object label reference. A routine executing within this other subsystem
can allocate and obtain a label reference for that subsystem and store it
in an attribute, in effect creating a "handle" to that subsystem.


This helps avoid having to copy/paste systems in layers in order to get
label references to subsystems deeper in the hierarchy which is copy/pasted
