Joe Tsai 1eacf78858 archive/tar: add Header.DetectSparseHoles and Header.PunchSparseHoles
To support the detection and creation of sparse files,
add two new methods:
	func Header.DetectSparseHoles(*os.File) error
	func Header.PunchSparseHoles(*os.File) error

DetectSparseHoles is intended to be used after FileInfoHeader
prior to serializing the Header with WriteHeader.
For each OS, it uses specialized logic to detect
the location of sparse holes. On most Unix systems, it uses
SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA to query for the holes.
On Windows, it uses a specialized the FSCTL_QUERY_ALLOCATED_RANGES
syscall to query for all the holes.

PunchSparseHoles is intended to be used after Reader.Next
prior to populating the file with Reader.WriteTo.
On Windows, this uses the FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA syscall.
On other operating systems it simply truncates the file
to the end-offset of SparseHoles.

DetectSparseHoles and PunchSparseHoles are added as methods on
Header because they are heavily tied to the operating system,
for which there is already an existing precedence for
(since FileInfoHeader makes uses of OS-specific details).

Fixes #13548
