Add tag.sort config recommendation

Zeger-Jan van de Weg requested to merge zj-tag-sort-config-recommend into master

Git, by default, sorts tags lexicographicly. Meaning that if a repository has two tags, v1.0 and v1.1, the list is:

v1.0 v1.1

On repositories with a lot of tags,, like GitLab has a lot of, this makes the plain git tag command less useful as the first releases are listed first, while the user is probably more interested in current releases. By reverse lexicographicly sorting the tags, this is solved.
