Log Message:
pax.1: document the "s" flag of the "s" option
Note the "s" option has an "s" flag that "prevents substitutions from
being performed on symbolic link destinations". Carry over r. 1.25 from
christos@ and part of r. 1.26 from wiz@ from tar.1, since this
functionality is available in pax as well as tar.
