tar_SUITE: Work around limited pathname length on Windows
Ever since the test suites were converted to the common_test convention, the tests for long names started to fail on Windows. The reason is that those test cases depend on the current working directory, and that the current working directory in common_test test cases is usually set to a directory with a longer pathname than in test_server test suites. Since neither Erlang/OTP nor common_test provides a portable way to create a temporary directory with a short name, we will have to abuse priv_dir by going upwards from it. For further information, see the comment in run_in_short_tempdir/2.
