A stream is the ordered sequence of raw data files from a receiver corresponding to a single boot session (period between restarts). This function searches for patterns of pulses corresponding to coded ID tags and adds them to the hits, runs, batches etc. tables in the receiver database. Each boot session is run as a separate batch.

1	sgFindTags(src, tagDB, resume = TRUE, par = NULL, mbn)

`src`	dplyr src_sqlite to receiver database
`tagDB`	path to sqlite tag registration database
`resume`	if TRUE, tag detection resumes where it last left off for each given item in `mbn`. Typically, a new batch of data files arrives and is added to the receiver database using `sgMergeFiles()`, and then `sgFindTags` is called again to continue processing these new data. When running archived data retroactively, it is better to set `resume=FALSE`, otherwise if bootnums are not monotonic, then tag event histories will be scrambled leading to searching for the wrong tags at the wrong times. This has often been the case for Beaglebone White receivers, since they had no internal memory for storing the bootcount, and relied on writing it to the SD card; updating to a new SD card would typically reset the boot count.
`par`	list of non-default parameters to the findtags code; defaults to NULL
`mbn`	integer monotonic boot number(s); this is the monoBN field from the `files` table in the receiver's sqlite database.
