Discussion: Rename "tags" for runners in .gitlab-ci.yml

Currently, the word "tags" refers to two different things, depending on where it exists in the .gitlab-ci.yml file.

It can mean:

• git tags

  my-deploy-job:
    only:
    - tags

• runner tags

  another-job-name:
    tags:
    - python
    - postgres

This leads to confusion when discussing issues and when reading documentation. I'd like to open up the discussion of changing "runner tags" to something else.

I know that making this sort of change is difficult, as it would mean that thousands of .gitlab-ci.yml files would be invalidated, but I think that it would be prudent to do so.
