Inconsistent rules for tag names

There are multiple regular expressions in the source code related to tags. Unfortunately, they have a different idea about valid tag names:
- GTG/core/tasks.py:
TAG_REGEX = re.compile(r'^\B\@\w+(\-\w+)*\,*')
- GTG/gtk/editor/taskview.py:
TAG_REGEX = re.compile(r'(?<!\/|\w)\@\w+(\.*[\-\w+\+\%\$\\(\)\[\]\{\}\^\=\/\*])*')
- GTG/backends/backend_caldav.py:
TAG_REGEX = re.compile(r'\B@\w+[-_()\w]*')
For example, the task editor (2.) recognizes the following lines as tags, but the other two does not:
@r^{2}x(3.14)
@a$(){}
@a^2+b^2=c^2
@_.-._
The first definition is probably the most reasonable and the easiest to handle. However, it might not be that simple based on PR #875.
