Update erl_tar to support PAX format, etc.
This commit introduces the following key changes:
- Support for reading tar archives in formats currently in common use,
such as v7, STAR, USTAR, PAX, and GNU tar's extensions to the
STAR/USTAR format.
- Support for writing PAX archives, only when necessary, using USTAR
when possible for greater portability.
These changes result in lifting of some prior restrictions:
- Support for reading archives produced by modern tar implementations
when other restrictions described below are present.
- Support for filenames which exceed 100 bytes in length, or paths which
exceed 255 bytes (see USTAR format specification for more details on
this restriction).
- Support for filenames of arbitrary length
- Support for unicode metadata (the previous behaviour of erl_tar was
actually violating the spec, by writing unicode-encoded data to fields
which are defined to be 7-bit ASCII, even though this technically
worked when using erl_tar at source and destination, it may not have
worked with other tar utilities, and this implementation now conforms
to the spec).
- Support for uid/gid values which cannot be converted to octal
integers.
