tests/Makefile: allow control over tags during check-acceptance

Although it is possible to run a specific test using the avocado
command-line, a user may want to use a specific tag while running the
``make check-acceptance`` during the development or debugging.

This allows using the AVOCADO_TAGS environment variable where the user
takes total control of which tests should run based on the tags defined.

This also makes the check-acceptance command flexible to restrict tests
based on tags while running on CI.

e.g.:

AVOCADO_TAGS="foo bar baz" make check-acceptance

It is also possible to run tests based on tags using the

Note that tags separated with commas have an AND behavior, while tags
separated by spaces have an OR behavior. For more information on Avocado
