AFAIK ctags will simply ignore those. It doesn't tag anything in .git
either. Come to think of it, do we really need to explicitly exclude
those dirs?

Tagging third_party is useful. We even patch those sometimes.
I'm not sure why it's not in src/ though.

Tagging tests is mostly useless, you're correct, but it doesn't hurt
much.

There's also a bunch of autogenerated files (e.g. *.lua.c and module.h).
I wonder if it makes sense to tag those. I guess it does.
