444807bb41 More work on ACLs: fix error in archive_entry's ACL parsing code,
try to set ACLs even if fflag restore fails, first cut at reading
  Solaris tar ACLs

Code improvement: merge gnu tar read support into main tar reader;
  this eliminates a lot of duplicate code and generalizes the tar
  reader to handle formats with GNU-like extensions.

Style: Makefile cleanup, eliminate 'dmalloc' references, remove 'tartype'
  from archive_entry (this makes archive_entry more format-agnostic)

Thanks to: David Magda for providing Solaris tar test files

775d07093e Overhauled ACL support. This makes us compatible
with 'star' ACL handling, though there's still a
bit more work needed in this area.

Added 'write_open_fd' and 'read_open_fd' to simplify, e.g.,
tar's u and r modes.  Eliminated old 'write_open_file_position'
as a bad idea.  (It required closing/reopening files to
do updates, which led to unpleasant implications.)

Various other minor fixes, API tweaks, etc.
