[PATCH setup 4/4] Silently ignore 'x' and 'g' type tar extended headers

[Jon TURNEY]

Silently ignore 'g' and 'x' type tar extended headers, rather than warning about
"unknown (or unsupported) file type 'x'".

It seems that base-files has an 'x' extended header for each file, apparently to
store the mtime.
