Importing gcc tarballs[1] with import-tars script (in contrib) fails
when hitting a pax extended header.

Make sure we always read the extended attributes from the pax entries,
and store the 'path' value if found to be used in the next ustar entry.

The code to parse pax extended headers was written consulting the Pax
Pax Interchange Format documentation [2].
