archive/tar: don't treat multiple file system links as a tar hardlink

Do not assume that if stat shows multiple links that we should mark the
file as a hardlink in the tar format.  If the hardlink link was not
referenced, this caused a link to "/".  On an overlay file system, all
files have multiple links.

The caller must keep the inode references and set TypeLink, Size = 0,
and LinkName themselves.
