Control: tags -1 + pending - wontfix

Now another note for maintainers...  Bug #665824 also requested
something like this, I'm not going to merge because it contains
unrelated stuff and it does not add clarity, but the tl;dr version is:

- get a command to search packages and see their tags :
$ aptitude search em
i      emacs           test,foo
i      emfoo           bar
i      barem           other-tag

Which would be already possible if there was a %escape listing all
tags for a package, the same that this bug is about.

I decided to re-use the %T ("tagged") also for user-tags, so if a
package is tagged and has user tags, it will show (with -F '%p %T#'):

 pkg-awesome                * tag-1, tag-2, tag-3

Except that "tagged" (an a-la-mutt feature, I guess) was never
implemented, so the "*" will never be there.

Perhaps "tagged" should be removed altogether, but in the meantime I
feel that it's more important to use a field for something which is
actually implemented (and which doesn't have any other way to show
user-tags of the packages) rather than reserving one of these scarce
escapes for an unimplemented feature.

So implemented now, and marked as +pending.


Cheers.
