Create pipeline schedules for tag targets

Release Notes

On GitLab you have been able to create a pipeline-schedule that targets a branch or tag through the API for some time but only for a branch through the UI.

Now you can choose a branch or tag as the target for a scheduled pipeline through the UI. Thanks @KevSlashNull for this contribution!

Summary

The API Documentation for creating pipeline-schedules says that with ref i can choose the branch or tag name to be triggered. When i create a new schedule via the GUI i can only choose a target branch from the dropdown menu and cannot enter a Tag. This seems to be a missing feature/bug in the GUI for creating new Schedules.

Steps to reproduce

Try to create a new Schedule via the GUI for a TAG target

What is the current bug behavior?

There is only a dropdown for Target Branch. Target TAG is not possible.

What is the expected correct behavior?

A dropdown that displays Branches and Tags
