Fixes p4lang#5530. - Rename the target from 'tags' to 'ctags' to match user expectations and dependencies in other CMakeLists.txt files. - Filter the CTAGS_DIRS list to only include directories that actually exist, removing the missing 'extensions' directory warning.

I have tried out these changes on a local VM, and I can build both ctags and etags targets with neither errors nor warnings. LGTM

Fixes #5530.
All targets now execute cleanly.
Tested on Ubuntu with
