Fixed extra margin when the merge request tabs are affixed

This was caused by some weird padding that was on the container & then
not correctly removed.

The fix involved removing the container from inside the tabs holder div
& then adding the widths through CSS depending on if fixed & whether the
parent is limited width or not.

In reality out container classes need to be fixed as it is getting pretty un-managable at the moment this should of been an easy fix, but in reality turned into something much harder.

Change repository storage paths location for clarity

See merge request !8757

In repositories such as https://github.com/git/git.git, annotated tags can
point to blobs, not necessarily to commits. `Repository` attempts to
return the tags in the order of the commit date, but if a commit is not
available the previous implementation would error due to a `nil` target.
This change modifies the code to use the current time if a commit
is not associated with the given tag.
