[PATCH] Revert ".gitignore: Ignore cscope and other *tags files"
This reverts commit f2d379e7cb802f922409c35e4831ee52a2162486. On top of that it also removes the `/tags` file because we don't even have the `make tags` target any more. Any tool-related ignores should go to user's global ignore file or the user's local exclude file which is per-project. See git-config(1) and gitignore(5) for more details.

We still carry '.ctags'. With that directory you don't need any fancy 'make tags' because simply running 'ctags' in the source code directory just does the right thing.

So /tags it's not needed in the .gitignore either.

I don't quite follow why. Running 'ctags' with the configuration we have in the repository creates an untracked 'tags' file which we don't want to commit/distribute.

Oh, and that creates the tags file, I misunderstood the first comment then, I'll remove the removal of /tags from the commit then.
