tap: support --full even if installed
Makes `tap` re-runnable and unshallows when requested with `--full`.
Tapping with a different URL raises an exception.
The homebrew/core tap cannot be untapped with `untap` so running
`brew tap --full homebrew/core` is now a built-in way to get a full
clone of this tap without resorting to workarounds.
Closes #17.
