filter-branch: use hash-object instead of mktag
This allows us to recreate even historical tags which would now be consider
invalid, such as v2.6.12-rc2..v2.6.13-rc3 in the Linux kernel source tree which
lack the `tagger` header.
$ git rev-parse v2.6.12-rc2
9e734775f7c22d2f89943ad6c745571f1930105f
$ git cat-file tag v2.6.12-rc2 | git mktag
error: char76: could not find "tagger "
fatal: invalid tag signature file
$ git cat-file tag v2.6.12-rc2 | git hash-object -t tag -w --stdin
