Description
### Apache Airflow version
3.0.6
### If "Other Airflow 2 version" selected, which one?
_No response_
### What happened?
Airflow currently enforces a limit where the combined length of all tags for a DAG cannot exceed 100 characters. If this limit is exceeded, an error occurs and the DAG is not accepted.
### What you think should happen instead?
Airflow should either support a higher combined length for DAG tags or provide a clearer error message/documentation about this limitation.
### How to reproduce
Create a DAG with tags whose combined length exceeds 100 characters.
Attempt to load the DAG in Airflow.
### Operating System

Contributor guide
Research direction
No source file or test is named. Start by creating a DAG with tags whose combined length exceeds 100 characters and loading it in Airflow 3.0.6; determine where the limit and resulting error are exposed. Done means the chosen behavior is implemented and covered by clear user-facing documentation or an appropriate test.
