PR/36275: john at iastate dot edu: tar -s modifies symlink targets
...
- This is explained in a comment in pat_rep.c inside mod_name(). I did not
want to change the default behavior, so I added another modifier "s" which
when set, the pattern will not modify the symlink destination.
- While here I fixed another bug that was introduced before by the fix in
PR/35257 where the renaming was happening twice since we called rep_name
twice.
- Finally if we are renaming hard of soft-link targets print the renames for
those too.

Add an option --chroot to tar. Causes it to chroot(".") before doing
...
an extract. With -h this will cause existing absolute symlinks to be treated
as relative to the current directory.
Helps sysinst handle existing symlinks in the target system.
Remove 'L' from the usage (got spilt into 'h' and 'H' many moons ago)
Add 'S' to usage, and put into correct place in options list.
