[2.3.x] Admin only tags 1.0.0

Compatible XF 2.x versions 2.3
Additional requirementsTested on PHP 8.3
License MIT License
Updates duration
Compatibility updates for new XenForo versions as required. No feature additions planned.
Visible branding No

This is my first addon, please be gentle.

What it does:
AdminOnlyTags lets you mark individual tags for admin-only use, so non-admin users can't apply them to any content.

Features:
- Restricts individual tags to admin-only use from a dedicated admin panel page or the tag editing form.
- Hides restricted tags from user autocomplete
- Error message when non-admin users try to use restricted tags

Why it exists:
I wanted a way to reserve certain tags for admin purposes (like "announcement", "verified", etc.) without
completely locking down the tagging system.

Technical stuff:
- XenForo 2.3+ compatible (tested on XenForo 2.3.7 with PHP 8.3 only)
- Adds one database column to xf_tag table
- Uses XFCP pattern for extensions
- AJAX toggles in admin interface
- Claude Code assisted.

If you spot any issues, please let me know in this thread.
