patch-459 makes ArX only use external inventory methods, so this problem doesn't come up anymore.

Inventory tags look like

x_wlandry@ucsd.edu_Fri_Jun_27_21:30:33_EDT_2003_20467.0
i_Tom_Lord_Sat_Jan_12_14:18:59_2002_(=README.d/=README.arch)

So to make them mutable, all we have to do is not compare the first
two characters (e.g. "x_") of the tags when checking for renames etc.
Then, we can write a convert facility that changes an implicit tag to
an explicit one.

make it possible to convert a tag from explicit to implicit

When checking in an untagged file for the first time, we should use a
hash of whatever we would get with "add". Then if we try to convert
it, we can use that as the tag. Thus, add should check to see if a
tag exists for the file.

Tags should not know whether they are implicit or explicit.
