For reasons unknown, libarchive appears to generate broken gnutar format
tar archives when the archive contains files that are larger than 2 GB.
This commit switches to the pax format to work this around.
This should be a better default as it also removes 256 char filename
length limitation and matches what other libraries are doing, e.g.
Python 3.8 switched to the pax format by default as well.
