scmutil: add function to validate new branch, tag, and bookmark names
For now the new function only checks to make sure the new label name
isn't a reserved name ('tip', '.', or 'null'). Eventually more of the
checks will be unified between the different types of labels.
The `tag` command is trivially updated to use it. Updating branches and
bookmarks to use it is slightly more invasive and thus reserved for
later patches.
