changeset 102525:438d27553e81

(tar-header-block-tokenize): Presume less, check more. (tar-summarize-buffer): Don't silently skip incomplete headers. (tar-mode): Revert to fundamental-mode in case of malformed tar data. (tar-extract): Try to make sure set-auto-mode doesn't mistakenly treat a tar file member as being a tar file itself, just because its own filename includes the parent tar file's.
