Documentation: consistently refer to check-ref-format

Change the <name> placeholder to <tagname> in the SYNOPSIS section of
git-tag documentation, and describe it in the OPTIONS section in a way
similar to how documentation for git-branch does.

Add SEE ALSO section to list the other documentation pages these two pages
refer to.
