I wonder how worthwhile making the combination of options case fast &
adding more complexity is, as opposed to just using the slower path
for those cases via:

diff --git a/builtin/tag.c b/builtin/tag.c
index 737a83028a..d90e8675a8 100644
--- a/builtin/tag.c
+++ b/builtin/tag.c

        filter_refs(&array, filter, FILTER_REFS_TAGS);
        ref_array_sort(sorting, &array);

I think I'll amend the tip of my WIP v2 to have something like that,
and then we can follow-up with making these cases where you supply
multiple options faster.

I'm currently running this:
https://gist.github.com/avar/45cf288ce7cdc43e7395c6cbf9a98d68

with this patch to builtin/tag.c:

diff --git a/builtin/tag.c b/builtin/tag.c
index 737a83028a..b93c5e1754 100644
--- a/builtin/tag.c
+++ b/builtin/tag.c

+       if (getenv("GIT_NO_TAG_ALGO"))
+               filter->with_commit_tag_algo = 0;

To smoke out any combinations of commits in git.git where with &
without the tag algo we already return different results, nothing so
far, but it's slow going.
