[PATCH 4/4] builtin-fast-export.c: handle nested tags

[Erik Faye-Lund <kusmabite@gmail.com>]

When tags that points to tags are passed to fast-export, an error saying
"Tag [TAGNAME] points nowhere?". This fix calls parse_object() on the object
before referencing it's tag, to ensure the tag-info is fully initialized. In
addition, it inserts a comment to point out where nested tags are handled. This
is consistent with the comment for signed tags.
