Returns the live list of tag elements that make up this doc comment.

The tag elements cover everything except the starting and ending comment delimiters, and generally omit leading whitespace (including a leading "*") and embedded line breaks. The first tag element of a typical doc comment represents all the material before the first explicit doc tag; this first tag element has a null tag name and generally contains 1 or more TextElements, and possibly interspersed with tag elements for nested tags like "String". Subsequent tag elements represent successive top-level doc tag (e.g., "@param", "@return", "@see").

Adding and removing nodes from this list affects this node dynamically.

Returns:the live list of tag elements in this doc comment (element type: TagElement)
