Certain special type-flags, specifically 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,
do not have a data section. Thus, regardless of what the size field
says, we should not attempt to read any data for these special types.
The relevant PAX and USTAR specification says:
<<<
If the typeflag field is set to specify a file to be of type 1 (a link)
or 2 (a symbolic link), the size field shall be specified as zero.
If the typeflag field is set to specify a file of type 5 (directory),
the size field shall be interpreted as described under the definition
of that record type. No data logical records are stored for types 1, 2, or 5.
If the typeflag field is set to 3 (character special file),
4 (block special file), or 6 (FIFO), the meaning of the size field is
unspecified by this volume of POSIX.1-2008, and no data logical records shall
be stored on the medium.
Additionally, for type 6, the size field shall be ignored when reading.
If the typeflag field is set to any other value, the number of logical
records written following the header shall be (size+511)/512, ignoring
any fraction in the result of the division.
>>>
Contrary to the specification, we do not assert that the size field
is zero for type 1 and 2 since we liberally accept non-conforming formats.

Motivation:
* The logic to verify the numEntries can overflow and incorrectly
pass, allowing a malicious file to allocate arbitrary memory.
* The use of strconv.ParseInt does not set the integer precision
to 64bit, causing this code to work incorrectly on 32bit machines.

A recursive call to Reader.Next did not check the error before
trying to use the result, leading to a nil pointer panic.
This specific CL addresses the immediate issue, which is the panic,
but does not solve the root issue, which is due to an integer
overflow in the base-256 parser.

If the stream is in an inconsistent state, it does not make sense
that Reader.Read can be called and possibly succeed.

The sparseFileReader is prone to two different forms of
denial-of-service attacks:
* A malicious tar file can cause an infinite loop
* A malicious tar file can cause arbitrary panics
This results because of poor error checking/handling, which this
CL fixes. While we are at it, add a plethora of unit tests to
test for possible malicious inputs.

Archives produced with GNU tar can have types of TypeGNULongName and
TypeGNULongLink.
These fields effectively appear like two file entries in the tar
archive. While golang's `archive/tar` transparently provide the file
name and headers and file payload, the access to the raw bytes is still
needed.
This fixes the access to the longlink header, it's payload (of the long
file path name), and the following file header and actual file payload.
