describe: when failing, tell the user about options that work
Users seem to call git-describe without reading the manpage, and then
wonder why it doesn't work with unannotated tags by default.
Make a minimal effort towards seeing if there would have been
unannotated tags, and tell the user. Specifically, we say that --tags
could work if we found any unannotated tags. If not, we say that
--always would have given results.
