Show GitLab Tags on Deployment and Environment pages

Release notes

Problem to solve

As a developer, I would like to develop on a feature branch, merge to the default branch and from there create a Release/Git Tag and deploy to production. After I deploy, there is no indication on the environments section of GitLab that a Git Tag was associated (it will only show the deployment from the default branch).

Proposal

Whenever a GitLab Release/Git Tag is associated to a Commit SHA, show the tag in the environments pages.

Further details

This capability is becoming more important as the Release CLI continues to be adopted and really helps show the value of having a "single application for your entire devops lifecycle".

Is this a cross-stage feature?
