git source plugin: Track git tags and save them to reproduce a minimum shallow repository
Instead of tag information being fetched which can change with time, they are tracked and saved in the projects.refs/.bst. Then we re-tag automatically the closest tag so that `git describe` works and is reproducible. This new feature is opt-in with the new `track-tags` configuration, and must be used to fix modules which are broken by our new policy of omitting the `.git/` repository when staging git sources. This fixes issue #487
