            Update key-value tags using JSON Merge Patch semantics (RFC 7386).
            Provide key-value pairs to add or update tags. Set tag values to
            `null` to remove tags. Unspecified tags remain unchanged. Read-only
            tags are always preserved and cannot be modified.


            **Examples:**


            - **Add/update tags:** `{'tags': {'environment': 'production',
            'team': 'backend'}}` adds new tags or updates existing ones.

            - **Delete tags:** `{'tags': {'old_tag': null}}` removes specific
            tags.

            - **Remove all tags:** `{'tags': null}` removes all user-managed
            tags (read-only tags are preserved).

            - **Partial update:** `{'tags': {'environment': 'staging'}}` only
            updates specified tags.

            - **Mixed operations:** `{'tags': {'environment': 'production',
            'cost_center': 'engineering', 'deprecated_tag': null}}` adds/updates
            'environment' and 'cost_center' while removing 'deprecated_tag',
            preserving other existing tags.

            - **Replace all:** first delete existing tags with null values, then
            add new ones in the same request.
          examples:
            - my-tag: my-tag-value
              my-tag-to-remove: null
