If we match a lightweight (non-annotated tag) as the name to
output and --long was requested we do not have a tag, nor do
we have a tagged object to display. Instead we must use the
object we were passed as input for the long format display.

The <pattern> given "git describe --match" was used only to filter tag
objects, and not to filter lightweight tags. This fixes it.
[jc: made the log to clarify this is a bugfix, not an enhancement, with
additional test]

As a general principle, we should not use "git diff" to validate the
results of what git command that is being tested has done. We would not
know if we are testing the command in question, or locating a bug in the
cute hack of "git diff --no-index".
Rather use test_cmp for that purpose.

Existing test checked --long only for exactly tagged commit. We should
make sure it works sensibly for commits that are not tagged.

Back in 212945d4 ("Teach git-describe to verify annotated tag names
before output") I taught git-describe to output the name shown in the
"tag" header of an annotated tag, rather than the name it is actually
stored under in this repository's ref namespace.
This test case verifies this is working correctly by renaming the ref
for an annotated tag to a different name that what is recorded in the
tag body, and verifying that tag is returned. We also verify there is
a message shown on stderr to inform the user that the tag is possibly
stored under the wrong name locally.

In c374b91c ("git-describe: use tags found in packed-refs correctly")
Junio fixed an issue where git-describe did not parse a tag object it
obtained from a packed-refs file, as the peel information was read in
from packed-refs and not the tag object itself.
This new test case verifies the fix listed above is functioning, and
does not have a regression in the future.

If git-describe fails we never execute the test_expect_success,
so we never actually test for failure. This is horribly wrong.
We need to always run the test case, but the test case is only
supposed to succeed if the prior git-describe returned 0.

This is useful when you want to see parts of the commit object name
in "describe" output, even when the commit in question happens to be
a tagged version. Instead of just emitting the tag name, it will
describe such a commit as v1.2-0-deadbeef (0th commit since tag v1.2
that points at object deadbeef....).
