ref-filter: handle nested tags in --points-at option
Tags are dereferenced until reaching a different object type to handle nested tags, e.g. on checkout. In contrast, "git tag --points-at=..." fails to list such nested tags because only one level of indirection is obtained in filter_refs(). Implement the recursive dereferencing for the "--points-at" option when filtering refs to unify the behaviour.
