Description

Feature request [via Zendesk](https://hypothesis.zendesk.com/agent/tickets/2942)

> I am not trying to delete and rename tags on an individual annotation; I am trying to give a tag a different name. I would also prefer to delete a tag that I am not using for any annotations.

So, for example, if I've tagged a bunch of annotations with `foo` and realize I'd actually like those annotations to be tagged with `foobar`, I'd like to change the tag itself rather than manually updating each annotation.

And if I've been using the tag `fizz` and it's not useful to me, I'd like to remove it from all of my annotations at the same time.
