Consider tagging versions

[PassiveLemon]

From maintainers: Both labels have been handed to this issue, remove the inapplicable one. Your title should answer at least 3 of 5W1H questions for fastest responses.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Not necessarily an issue but QOL. I am packaging this in Nix. Tagging the versions would allow for easier updating of the Nix expression by not having to use the commit hashes.

Describe the solution you'd like

Just make a release tag with the updated version. Ex: v1.7.17

Describe alternatives you've considered

N/A

Additional context

This was requested by by the reviewers.

I'm writing a gentoo ebuild for this and tagging would be very much appreciated.
