Commit 7550424804 (name-rev: include taggerdate in considering the best
name) introduced a bug in name-rev.
If a repository has both annotated and non-annotated tags, annotated
tag will always win, even if it was created decades after the commit.
Consider a repository that always used non-annotated tags, and at some
point started using annotated tags - name-rev --tags will return the
first annotated tags for all the old commits (in our repository it is
followed by ~5067 for one commit, or by ~120^2~21^2~88^2~87 for
another...). This is obviously not what the user expects.
The taggerdate should only be matched if *both tags* have it.
