Research direction

Start by locating the command handling for `RENAME TAG foo TO bar ON measurement` and the continuous-query (CQ) definitions affected by a tag rename. Confirm how existing tags and measurements are represented, then define completion as renaming the tag and updating all affected CQs without breaking their behavior.
