Description
### Current Behavior
I can update a project with tags that don't exist in the system and the tags will be created.
If I try to add tags to a project via `v1/tag/$tag_name/project` and the tag does not exist I get an error:
```
{"status":404,"title":"Resource does not exist","detail":"A tag with name newtag does not exist"}
```
I didn't check it but I expect similar behavior for other `v1/tag` endpoints
### Expected Behavior
Missing tags are automatically created by all endpoints.
