Preserving most tags seems reasonable, and I have thought having
"automatic" go away was a bug.  But pkg_rolling-replace and the
unsafe_depends scheme has depended on some tags going away.

So, I'd like to see the following tags removed after make replace:

  unsafe_depends
  unsafe_depends_strict  # for the future
  rebuild

Do you think this is reasonable?
