Update a tag

PUT
/tags/{tag_gid}
Tags
Updates the properties of a tag. Only the fields provided in the data
block will be updated; any unspecified fields will remain unchanged.
When using this method, it is best to specify only those fields you wish
to change, or else you may overwrite changes made by another user since
you last retrieved the tag.
Returns the complete updated tag record.
