When filtering a list of tags with 'git tag -l' or 'git ls-remote --tags' on the command line, multiple space-delimited patterns may be specified. See git-tag.

This does not work with the Jenkins git-client-plugin. The pattern list is processed as a single parameter; while using the Git Parameter plugin to try and present a list of tags using two tag patterns, I got no tags.

According to git-check-ref-format, spaces are not a valid character for git references. So it should be safe to split any passed-in patterns and iterate over them.
