t7006: add tests for how git tag paginates
Using, e.g., `git -c pager.tag tag -a new-tag` results in errors such as "Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal" and a garbled terminal. Someone who makes use of both `git tag -a` and `git tag -l` will probably not set `pager.tag`, so that `git tag -a` will actually work, at the cost of not paging output of `git tag -l`. Since we're about to change how `git tag` respects `pager.tag`, add tests around this, including how the configuration is ignored if --no-pager or --paginate are used. Construct tests with a few different subcommands. First, use -l. Second, use "no arguments" and --contains, since those imply -l. (There are more arguments which imply -l, but using these two should be enough.) Third, use -a as a representative for "not -l". Actually, the tests use `git tag -am` so no editor is launched, but that is irrelevant, since we just want to see whether the pager is used or not. Make one of the tests demonstrate the broken behavior mentioned above, where `git tag -a` respects `pager.tag`.
