Subject: Relative paths in tags files doesn't work in nvi.

If your tags file contains relative paths, nvi prepends the full path to
the tags file, instead of just the directory portion.  This is also found
in the regular nvi-1.79 distribution.  It's caused by a one-liner in
ex/ex_tag.c; here's the diff to fix it:
