Description
Using the Tag search dialog I am able to find tests tagged with TAG_A (underscore), but not the ones tagged with TAG B (space), when searching using the full tag name (Results: 0). It does work when using a wild card search TAG*B.
v2.1dev22, Windows Python 3.11 and Linux Python 3.10

Research direction
Start with the Tag search dialog and reproduce the difference between searching for TAG B and using TAG*B on the reported Python and operating-system versions. Trace the tag-search handling for spaces; done means an exact full-name search finds tests tagged with TAG B as the wildcard search does.
