Refactor parsing of CLI args so that we can modify them in the base class

Implement tag and skip_tag handling in the CLI() class.  Change tag and
skip_tag command line options to be accepted multiple times on the CLI
and add them together rather than overwrite.

* Make it configurable whether to merge or overwrite multiple --tags arguments
* Make the base CLI class an abstractbaseclass so we can implement
  functionality in parse() but still make subclasses implement it.
* Deprecate the overwrite feature of --tags with a message that the
  default will change in 2.4 and go away in 2.5.

* Add documentation for merge_multiple_cli_flags
* Fix galaxy search so its tags argument does not conflict with generic tags
* Unit tests and more integration tests for tags

+This allows changing how multiple --tags and --skip-tags arguments are handled
+on the command line.  In Ansible up to and including 2.3, specifying --tags
+more than once will only take the last value of --tags.  Setting this config
+value to True will mean that all of the --tags options will be merged
+together.  The same holds true for --skip-tags.
+
+.. note:: The default value for this in 2.3 is False.  In 2.4, the
+    default value will be True.  After 2.4, the option is going away.
+    Multiple --tags and multiple --skip-tags will always be merged together.
