The Tar code I've originally used feels too hacky and featureless. Find another implementation.

…mlinks for .NET standard 2 and Posix platforms

Extracts linkname from the tar header, and exposes this on IEntry as the LinkTarget (string) property. If an entry is not a symlink, then that property is null.

Uses Mono.Posix.NETStandard nuget to create a symlink. However, this is only applicable to .NET standard 2.0+. So far, unable to find a nuget that works for older versions.

Also, not sure what to do on Windows.

…tar containing symlinks

This is a source archive of the MoltenVK project from github, which is my use-case for SharpCompress.
I added a test case in the project, which should extract the tar, and validate any symlink targets with what the tar thinks it ought to be.
