tar-in: Add --no-same-owner flag to tar command when target filesystem doesn't support chown (RHBZ#840572).
When using tar-in or tools built around it such as virt-make-fs, if
the target filesystem is vfat then unpacking the tarball would fail
because tar tries to chown(2) files and fails.
You would see errors such as:
tar: <file>: Cannot change ownership to uid 500, gid 500: Operation not permitted
This change detects whether the target filesystem supports chown(2).
If not, it adds the --no-same-owner flag to tar to stop it from trying
to change the ownership of newly created files.
(cherry picked from commit 50780a84f65ec5d76605691cea889392c2730f54)
