I tried to use the WorkItemUpdater to add at linked build work items each on the one hand a tag like 'deployed_to_production' and to remove a tag like 'deployed_to_test' on the other hand.
The logs told me that it would do it, but the system was shown both tags afterwards.
After some debugging rounds I found out that with patch parameter 'add', which was used here by default,
one can only add tags to Azure Devops work items but not delete any of them.
Because of that when you want to delete tags from work items, you need to use the patch parameter 'replace' instead.
So with this pull request I adjusted the WorkItemUpdater.ts, so that the patch operation parameter 'replace' is used, when there are tags that should be removed.
