scalar: add --no-tags option to 'scalar clone'
Some large repositories use tags to track a huge list of release versions. While this is choice is costly on the ref advertisement, it is further wasteful for clients who do not need those tags. Allow clients to optionally skip the tag advertisement. This behavior is similar to that of 'git clone --no-tags' implemented in 0dab246 (clone: add a --no-tags option to clone without tags, 2017-04-26), including the modification of the remote.origin.tagOpt config value to include "--no-tags". One thing that is opposite of the 'git clone' implementation is that this allows '--tags' as an assumed option, which can be naturally negated with '--no-tags'. The clone command does not accept '--tags' but allows "--no-no-tags" as the negation of its '--no-tags' option. While testing this option, combine the test with the previously untested '--no-src' option introduced in 4527db8 (scalar: add --[no-]src option, 2023-08-28).
