Add concept of "parent" tag namespaces

This allows us to create an EnumType that groups all of the analyzer
tag values into a single type, while still having the existing types
that split them up. We can then use this for certain events that benefit
from taking all of the tag types at once.

##! These tags are defined internally by
##! the analyzers themselves, and documented in their analyzer-specific
##! description along with the events that they generate.
##!
##! Analyzer tags are also inserted into a global :zeek:type:`AllAnalyzers` enum
##! type. This type contains duplicates of all of the :zeek:type:`Analyzer::Tag`,
##! :zeek:type:`PacketAnalyzer::Tag` and :zeek:type:`Files::Tag` enum values
##! and can be used for arguments to function/hook/event definitions where they
##! need to handle any analyzer type. See :zeek:id:`Analyzer::register_for_ports`
##! for an example.
