[PATCH] gitk: Prevent garbage text at the end of the tag description

[Björn Gustavsson <bgustavsson@xxxxxxxxx>]

When first clicking on a commit with a huge diff (in 1000 files
or more), and then clicking on a tag, garbage text could appear
after the tag description.

The problem is that commits are shown incrementally using a
run queue (implemented by the runq() and filerun() procedures).
When the user requests a tag to be shown, there may still be
jobs in the run queue updating the previous commit.

Solve this problem by implementing a new procedure
empty_run_queue() that will empty the run queue and cancel all
outstanding file events. Call it from showtag().

This is more an annoyance than a real bug, but I was quite
surprised the first time I saw it happen and at first searched
for a bug in my own scripts that had created the tags.

This patch is a suggested correction.

Here is an example of a repository where the problem can be
reproduced quite easily:
