Must include `label_dir` as parameter, currently function does not set to default as `None`

What is your idea?

Hello!

I am excited to get to use this tool! After some testing, I realized that the current tiff to OMETIFF or OMEZARR does not have the default for labels as None, but says it is optional in the docstring.

I think it would be beneficial, since the parameter is optional, to set the default for the function as None.

Here is the error I was getting with the code:

# convert original data into OME-TIFF format through nViz
nviz_ome_tiff = nviz.tiff_to_ometiff(
    # specify an image directory (original images)
    image_dir=test_image_dir,
    # specify an output path
    output_path=output_ome_tiff_path,
    # map filename patterns to channel names
    channel_map={
        "111": "Channel A",
        "222": "Channel B",
        "333": "Channel C",
        "444": "Channel D",
        "555": "Channel E",
    },
    # set the scaling for z, y, and x
    scaling_values=scaling_values,
)

# show the filepath
nviz_ome_tiff
