tag mask is interpreted in binary
if the nth bit==1 then the nth tag is selected otherwise not.
(rightmost bit is the 0th)

in C '<< n' is left shift by n, which adds zeros from right, so 1<<4
is 10000 in binary
(the 4th bit set thus 5th tag is selected (counting tags from 1))
(selecting more tags can be done like (1<<4)|(1<<6) or ~0 means all tags)

use the xprop command and select the stalonetray window to see
the window class or name (you should use a substring of it in the rule).

to answer your question, you'll need something like
 /* class instance title tags mask isfloating */
 { "Stalone", NULL, NULL, 1 << 3, False },
(rule strings are case sensitive!)

does it occure with floating layout as well?
if not then try to set the wine window floating in the rules.
