tar writer: replace PAX headers with GNU extensions
Some experiments seem to indicate that the various GNU extensions are more widely supported than their POSIX equivalents[1]. Possibly because they are easier to implement and possibly because of the wide spread use of GNU tar. This commit replaces the PAX writer in the write_tar_header implementation with a GNU extension based writer. The writer is also cleaned up by removing all global state. The record counter is moved outside into the tar2sqfs program and passed in as function argument.

-.SH LIMITATIONS
-To be compatible with as many tools as possible, the output format is POSIX tar
-using pax extensions if necessary, so the tools you intend to use should
-support the pax format.
+.SH COMPATIBILITY
+To be compatible with as many tools as possible, the output format is pre-POSIX
+ustar archive using GNU extensions where necessary. This seems to be more
+widely supported by many tar programs (besides GNU tar), even more than the
+newer POSIX format and PAX extensions.
It is not possible to store socket files in a tar or pax archive. Also, in the
current implementation, all extended attribuates are lost.
