Description

This is the current implementation:
```
@nonobjc @discardableResult func replaceTag(_ oldTag: String, with newTag: String?, withOrder newTagOrder: String, completion: @escaping (_ response: MXResponse) -> Void) -> MXHTTPOperation {
return __addTag(oldTag, withOrder: newTagOrder, success: currySuccess(completion), failure: curryFailure(completion))
}
```

Looks like it replaces the order, but not the tag. This is different from what is happening when using obj-c APIs.
