Tag an Existing Post

Resolve a tag by name and assign it to an existing post.
- Search the tags collection for a tag matching the supplied name, returning at most one result.
- Read the target post by id to confirm it exists before updating its tags.
- Update the post so the matched tag id is assigned in its tags taxonomy.
