makerel: always use ustar format
When generating release tarballs, always use ustar format. The ustar
format is one of the POSIX standard formats, and is the basis for future
tar formats. It supports all of the features we need to create a release
tarball. The newer formats support extended attributes that can produce
warnings when extracting on some systems. This includes attributes like
LIBARCHIVE.xattr.com.apple.quarantine, set on macOS systems on files
downloaded from the internet. Using the ustar format prevents those
attributes from being stored in the tarball and avoids the warnings.
