[ENH] add :auto-matching-tags or :auto-tags-regex

:auto-tags
    This automatically groups items by all of their tags (i.e. items with exactly the same tags, in any order, will be grouped together).

Would love to have a version of the above that only groups on tags that match a regex. This would allow lots of nice structure, such as grouping agenda by project, (where projects tags follow the pattern P@.* or proj@.*) among other things.

Hi Nick,

Sure, that seems like a good idea. Would you be able to send a PR to implement this? I'd be glad to provide feedback as you develop it.

From what I understand the hierarchical scheme described in the documentation for Hierarchical Tags is not fully implemented, but this would produce some of the same effects.

Yeah, for sure!

By the way, any preference for which name to use?

Seems like my email replies are not showing up on GitHub issues. :/

Anyway, I'd suggest :auto-tags-match, which is slightly more concise, and fits well with Emacs's regexp-matching terminology (e.g. string-match).
