inputs.win_eventlog does not convert (any/some?) fields to tags

System info

Telegraf v1.32.0, Windows Server 2022 21H2

Docker

No response

Steps to reproduce

1. Edit telegraf conf to include "*WorkstationName*", "*TargetUserName*" for event_tags
2. Start Telegraf
3. Go to Grafana to group by a tag.
4. Notice there is no tag for the fields Data_TargetUserName and Data_WorkstationName
   ...

Expected behavior

I'd expect there to be tags for Data_TargetUserName and Data_WorkstationName

Actual behavior

but there’s only fields, no tags. See screenshot.
