fast-import: fix buffer overflow in dump_tags

Browse source 
When creating a new annotated tag, we sprintf the refname
into a static-sized buffer. If we have an absurdly long
tagname, like:

  git init repo &&
  cd repo &&
  git commit --allow-empty -m foo &&
  git tag -m message mytag &&
  git fast-export mytag |
  perl -lpe '/^tag/ and s/mytag/"a" x 8192/e' |
  git fast-import <input

we'll overflow the buffer. We can fix it by using a strbuf.
