[PATCH v5 0/3] builtin/tag.c: add --trailer option

["John Passaro via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

5th follow-up patch taking welcome feedback from Patrick and JCH. Net new
changes include suggested tweaks in documentation, error messaging, code
formatting, and patch description.

Since git-tag --list --format="%(trailers)" can interpret trailers from
annotated tag messages, it seems natural to support --trailer when writing a
new tag message.

git-commit accomplishes this by taking --trailer arguments and passing them
to git-interpret-trailer. This patch series refactors that logic and uses it
to implement --trailer on git-tag.

John Passaro (3):
  builtin/commit: use ARGV macro to collect trailers
  builtin/commit: refactor --trailer logic
  builtin/tag: add --trailer option

     -    to a tag message, you must do so using `-F` or by editing the message.
