Description

Adding tags to a task appends them to said task's existing tag list, which can make their order inconsistent across tasks. Instead, a task's tags should always be ordered alphabetically, and the order in which tags are added to a task should be ignored.

No file or test is named. Locate the task tag handling and any existing tests for tag ordering, then verify how tags are stored and displayed. Done means tags are alphabetized consistently, regardless of insertion order, with tests covering adding tags in different orders.
