tar-tree: Use the prefix field of a tar header
... to store parts of the path, if possible. This allows us to avoid
writing extended headers in certain cases (long pathes can only be
split at '/' chars).
Also adds a file to the test repo with a 100 chars long directory name.
Even old versions of tar that don't understand POSIX extended headers
should be able to handle this testcase.
Btw.: The longest path in the kernel tree currently has 70 chars.
Together with a 30 chars long prefix this would already cross the
field limit of 100 chars.
