internal/keyvaluetags: Allow KeyValueTags type passthrough in New(), …

…add unit testing, and fix potential panic

Reference: #18726 (comment)

The current behavior is to return an empty `KeyValueTags` if the type is unrecognized in `New()` in preference over panicking or requiring all consumers to implement error handling. This augments `New()` to accept the named `KeyValueTags` in addition to its underlying `map[string]*TagData` type, preventing confusing behavior on an otherwise easy to miss resource/service implementation detail.

Added unit testing to cover various `New()` type scenarios. Fixed panic discovered while implementing the unit testing.
