      Description

      Steps to reproduce:

      1: install two versions of a package and move it to a local npm repo (I used grunt)
      2: with npm set up, do: npm dist-tag add grunt@1.0.1 latest
      +latest: grunt@1.0.1
      3: see that the latest tag is still 1.0.2: npm dist-tag ls grunt
      latest: 1.0.2

      The latest tag is never updated, even though the metadata is updated apparently:

      2018-03-03 00:00:29,194 [http-nio-8081-exec-17] [INFO ] (o.j.r.n.r.h.AbstractNpmRepoHandler:164) - Updating npm package metadata '.npm/grunt/package.json' into repo 'npm-local'

      Tagging seems to work for tags that aren't latest though:

      npm dist-tag add grunt@1.0.1 testtag
      npm dist-tag ls grunt
      latest: 1.0.2
      testtag: 1.0.1
