A temporary 512 bytes buffer is allocated for every call to
readHeader. This buffer isn't returned to the caller and it could
be reused to lower the number of memory allocations.
This CL improves it by using a pool and zeroing out the buffer before
putting it back into the pool.

Calling tar.Reader.Read() used to work fine, but without this patch it panics.
Simply return EOF to indicate the tar.Reader.Next() needs to be called.

Do not use ustar format if we need the GNU one.
Change \000 to \x00 for consistency
Check for "ustar\x00" instead of "ustar\x00\x00" for conistency with tar
and compatiblity with archive generated with older code (which was ustar\x00\x20\x00)
Add test for long name + big file.

ZIP64 Extra records are variably sized, but we weren't capping
our reading of the extra fields at its previously-declared
size.
No test because I don't know how to easily create such files
and don't feel like manually construction one. But all
existing tests pass, and this is "obviously correct" (queue
laughter).

For some long filenames the USTAR-split code does not work
correctly. It is wrongly assumed that the path would not be too long,
but it is.
The user visible result was that a filename was split, but it still
caused an error.
The cause was a wrongly calculated nlen. In addition I noticed that
at this place it is also seems necessary to check if the prefix will
fit in the 155 chars available for the prefix.

This is potentially an API-breaking change, but it is an important bug fix.
The CL https://golang.org/cl/7305072/ added stuff to make
the tar file look more like a file system internally, including providing an
implementation of os.FileInfo for the file headers within the archive.
But the code is incorrect because FileInfo.Name is supposed to return
the base name only; this implementation returns the full path. A round
trip test added in the same shows this in action, as the slashes are
preserved as we create a header using the local implementation of
FileInfo.
The CL here changes the behavior of the tar (and zip) FileInfo to honor
the Go spec for that interface. It also clarifies that the FileInfoHeader
function, which takes a FileInfo as an argument, will therefore create
a header with only the base name of the file recorded, and that
subsequent adjustment may be necessary.
There may be code out there that depends on the broken behavior.
We can call out the risk in the release notes.
Fixes#6180.

The tar/archive code from golang has a problem with linknames with length >
100. A pax header is added but the original header still written with a too
long field length.
As it is clear that pax support is incomplete I have added missing
implementation parts.
This commit contains code from the golang project in the folder tar/archiv.
The following pax header records are now automatically written:
- gname)
- linkpath
- path
- uname
The following fields can be written with PAX, but the default is to use the
star binary extension.
- gid (value > 2097151)
- size (value > 8589934591)
- uid (value > 2097151)
The string fields are written when the value is longer as the field or if the
string contains a char that is not encodable as 7-bit ASCII value.
The change was tested against a current ubuntu-cloud image tarball comparing
the compressed result.
+ added some automated tests for the new functionality.
Fixes#6056.
