Change the "tag" command to treat the "-n" invocation as a list-like
option in addition to --contains, --points-at etc.
Most of the work for this was done in my preceding "tag: Implicitly
supply --list given another list-like option", but I've split off this
patch since it's more contentious. Now invocations these invocations
will be synonymous:
git tag -n 100
git tag -n --list 100
Whereas before the former would die. This doesn't technically
introduce any more ambiguity than change to the other list-like
options, but it does introduce the possibility for more confusion
since instead of the latter of these dying:
git tag -n100
git tag -n 100
It now works entirely differently, i.e. invokes list mode with a
filter for "100".
