rHG89d44cfcdeeb: tags: show how hg behaves if a tags cache entry is truncated
Summary

I'm seeing an error of this form in production on the order of once a
month. I'm not sure how it happens, but I suspect interrupting a pull
might result in half written cache entries.

Junk data + missing cache entries results in hg further corrupting the
cache, then failing.
