BuildStream can not build from non-numeric tags
Background

Task description
[//]: # Summary:

Acceptance Criteria
[//]: # BuildStream should build from any tag in the respository if documentation says you can use BuildStream from source
Error log and Steps to reproduce
- NOTE: the user had buildstream installed in the system using "pip3 install --user -e ." in previous versions
$ cd buildstream
$ git checkout PRE_CAS_MERGE_JULY_2018
Note: checking out 'PRE_CAS_MERGE_JULY_2018'.
You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.
If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:
git checkout -b <new-branch-name>
HEAD is now at 4c6512d6... Only redirect elements for workspace and track operations
