git tag --contains: avoid stack overflow

In large repos, the recursion implementation of contains(commit,
commit_list) may result in a stack overflow. Replace the recursion with
a loop to fix it.

This problem is more apparent on Windows than on Linux, where the stack
is more limited by default.

[jes: re-written to imitate the original recursion more closely]

Thomas Braun pointed out several documentation shortcomings.

Tests are run only if ulimit -s is available.  This means they cannot
be run on Windows.
