We've also found a few related places where we print member names
without having checked them at all

arfile.cc:
return _error->Error(_("Invalid archive member header %s"), Head.Name);

extracttar.cc:
_error->Warning(_("Unknown TAR header type %u, member %s"),(unsigned)Tar->LinkFlag,Tar->Name);

We're going to fold those patches into there as well, removing the
name arguments, as they might not be nul terminated.
