I was bored, so looked at old tickets and found this. Not sure if it's worth
the code, but someone once asked for it and it was simple enough to do.
The core functionality is in Darcs.Patch.Set.tagsCovering. Is this the right
place for it? I put it there because patchSetTags (the function used when we
have no --covering option) is also in that module.

* resolve issue2288: add --covering PATTERN option to show tags command
It does seem a bit obscure from the description, but the motivation
in issue2288 makes sense to me.
Perhaps the help string could avoid the word "covering" and instead
say "containing"? I think the "(only)" is redundant too, if we are being
that precise we should use it almost everywhere.
