Support tag instance when boot

Registered by Zhenyu Zheng

Currently, we can only create tags for existing instances, that is, we can only use PUT /servers/<server_id>/tags/<tag> to add tag(s) for instances that we have already built, and do not have the ability to add tags for instances when we boot the instance(containing "tags" in the boot request body). This is somehow not good enough, as user would like
to add tags when they boot the instance rather than boot instances, list the instances and add tags to them one by one.

We should add support to tag instances when we boot them.
