    archive/tar: properly handle header-only "files" in Writer · e098e514
    Joe Tsai authored
    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 write 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.

    Fixes #15565
