Tag page can not sort by name in descending order

Proposal

Several of the pages in GitLab allow you to sort a list by various attributes, and allow you to do so both in ascending and descending order. For example https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues

Note the icon on the right side of the menu control that controls sorting direction.

The Tags page (https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/tags) does not have this full capability yet.

Not only is it not using the sorting direction control and uses an old style of listing sorting direction (by explicit label), but you only sort ascending by Name, which for long lists makes finding what you want more difficult.

Request:

  • the Tags page support sorting in descending order
  • for consistency and user happiness, the updated control format (with icon) should be propagated across the entire product.
