Sampling each tag in the repo

[jnoortheen]

Is it possible to run the benchmark for each of published tag of a repo?

Currently I am using --steps to limit the number of commits it selects. It will be better if one can run against each of the tag.

The special case code for ALL and NEW etc. is done in

asv/asv/commands/run.py

Line 235 in b54d302

elif range_spec == 'EXISTING':

.

There is no equivalent to TAGS by the looks of it.

Given the way repos are implemented, I think it could be as simple as adding:

elif range_specs == "TAGS":
    commit_hashes = list(repo.get_tags().keys())

This is completely untested, and I have no experience of this codebase, so YMMV.
