describe: fix --no-exact-match
Since 2c33f75754 (Teach git-describe --exact-match to avoid expensive tag searches, 2008-02-24) git describe accepts --no-exact-match, but it does the same as --exact-match, an alias for --candidates=0. That's because it's defined using OPT_SET_INT with a value of 0, which sets 0 when negated as well. Let --no-exact-match set the number of candidates to the default value instead. Users that need a more specific lack of exactitude can specify their preferred value using --candidates, as before. The "--no-exact-match" option was not covered in the tests, so let's add a few. Also add a case where --exact-match option is used on a commit that cannot be described without distance from tags and make sure the command fails.
