Symlinks are broken when extracting tar archive

Description

I have a TAR archive that contains symlink(s).

mkdir test
cd test
echo "file1" > file1
ln -s file1 file2
mkdir a
cd a
echo "file3" > file3
cd ..
ln -s a b
cd ..
tar -cf test.tar test

Extracting using tar works fine:

rm -r test
tar -xvf test.tar
ls -lah test

total 24K
drwxr-xr-x   3 michal michal 4.0K Sep 19 09:36 .
drwxr-xr-x 104 michal users   12K Sep 19 09:37 ..
drwxr-xr-x   2 michal michal 4.0K Sep 19 09:36 a
lrwxrwxrwx   1 michal michal    1 Sep 19 09:36 b -> a
-rw-r--r--   1 michal michal    6 Sep 19 09:36 file1
lrwxrwxrwx   1 michal michal    5 Sep 19 09:36 file2 -> file1

The following code extracts the archive using php:

<?php

$tar = '/home/michal/test.tar';
$targetDir = '/tmp/phpissue';

$phar = new \PharData($tar);
$phar->extractTo($targetDir, null, true);

Resulted in this:

ls -lah /tmp/phpissue/test/
total 16K
drwxr-xr-x 3 michal michal 4.0K Sep 19 09:42 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 michal michal 4.0K Sep 19 09:42 ..
drwxr-xr-x 2 michal michal 4.0K Sep 19 09:42 a
-rwxrwxrwx 1 michal michal    0 Sep 19 09:42 b
-rw-r--r-- 1 michal michal    6 Sep 19 09:42 file1
-rwxrwxrwx 1 michal michal    0 Sep 19 09:42 file2

The directory "b" is just an empty file, also the file2 is just en empty file. Both were symlinks.

I expect that those symlinks are correctly extracted.

Comience en el punto de entrada PharData::extractTo y siga cómo se gestionan las entradas de enlaces simbólicos TAR durante la extracción. Reproduzca el caso de archivo proporcionado en PHP 8.2+ y verifique que file2 y b sean enlaces simbólicos que apuntan a file1 y a, respectivamente, en lugar de archivos regulares vacíos.
