Lookup a child tag by name. Throws if not found.
Useful if you only expect one, and only one, child tag of a given name. Only looks for immediate child tags of this, doesn't search recursively.
If you expect multiple tags by the same name and want to get them all, use tags[string] instead.
The name can optionally include a namespace, as in "namespace:name". Or, you can search all namespaces using "*:name". Use an empty string to search for anonymous tags, or "namespace:" for anonymous tags inside a namespace. Wildcard searching is only supported for namespaces, not names. Use tags[0] if you don't care about the name.
If there are multiple tags by the chosen name, the last tag will always be chosen. That is, this function considers later tags with the same name to override previous ones.
If no such tag is found, an sdlang.exception.TagNotFoundException will be thrown. If you'd rather receive a default value, use getTag instead.
