Similar to #3 the tag command should support pre-releases.

Examples

~> tag --prerelease
# v2.1.1-1
~> tag --premajor
# v3.0.0-0
~> tag --preminor
# v3.1.0-0
~> tag --prepatch
# v3.1.1-0
~> tag --prerelease
# v3.1.1-1

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the existing tag command implementation in the repository, particularly how version bumps are handled. Then implement the pre release logic using semver conventions, incrementing the pre release number on each call. Consider adding options like prerelease, premajor, preminor, prepatch.
