From: Thomas Habets <habets@google.com>
Subject: [PATCH] Check for size overflow in tar header fields.

This prevents surprising outputs being created, e.g. this cpio tar
output with more than one file:

tar cf suffix.tar AUTHORS
dd if=/dev/zero seek=16G bs=1 count=0 of=suffix.tar
echo suffix.tar | cpio -H tar -o | tar tvf -

-rw-r--r-- 1000/1000       0 2019-08-30 16:40 suffix.tar
-rw-r--r-- thomas/thomas 161 2019-08-30 16:40 AUTHORS
