Remove vestiges of GNU tar.

Add /lib/getopt I miss somehow initially.

Remove files no longer needed

Fix an annoying bug in tar. When it converted 'tar zcf' to 'tar -z -c -f'

it forgot to null terminate the new argv[] array. If you mixed this with $TAR_OPTIONS, phkmalloc and a whole bunch of other variables, you could end up with a segfault. This isn't strictly a phkmalloc victory since tar walks off the end of an array rather than use uninitialized malloc memory, but phkmalloc makes it easier to provoke.

Centralize _PATH_* definitions.

Don't kill itself in --fast-read mode if there is no decompressor started.

SIGTERM we are sending to decompressor when there is nothing left to do is actually delivered to decompressor, not to the another copy of tar, which does unblocking. MFC after: 2 weeks

all files we have been asked for. This vastly improves performance of pkg_add(1), because usually it only extract +CONTENTS file in --fast-read mode, checks it and only then extracts full content of tarball in normal mode. Without this patch, it have had to decompress the tarball twice, effectively doubling consumed CPU time. MFC after: 1 week

Move even closer to matching behaviour of our old tar(1) wrt preserving

modes of extracted files. This effectively disables special threating of uid 0 for mode-preserving purposes and should fix problems with pkg_add(1) and probably other things when extracting files/dirs with sticky mode bits set. Pointed out by: bde MFC in: 2 weeks
