[PATCH] log: omit tag prefix for color decoration

Omit the "tag: " prefix for tags in commit decorations when coloring is enabled. The prefix isn't necessary as such when tags are distinguished by color already, and omitting it saves a bit of space and visual noise.

It also avoids a problem: when the %d or %D placeholders are used while a %w wrapping specifier is in force in a format string, lines can be broken between the prefix and the tag name. In that case, the prefix gets colored correctly, but the tag name gets the default color instead.

Also remove the tag prefix from test t4207 for color decorations, and add --no-color to a test t6002 check of the output of rev-list --bisect that expects tag prefixes to be present.
