Create and manage tag

Tags are a feature that helps categorize and manage resources by attaching metadata to them. Tag creation or deletion requests are processed asynchronously, and it may take some time for the changes to be applied. Additionally, if tasks are in progress, the next request can only be processed once all tasks are completed.
