tarfile: Extracting symlink using extractfile results in Keyerror: linkname not found

Bug report

Bug description:

I have the following tar archive containing some files and a symlink to a file that is not part of the tar archive.

drwxr-xr-x guif/users        0 2024-08-06 15:51 test/
-rw-r--r-- guif/users        0 2024-08-06 15:50 test/file3
lrwxrwxrwx guif/users        0 2024-08-06 15:51 test/mylink -> /usr/bin/env
-rw-r--r-- guif/users        0 2024-08-06 15:50 test/file1
-rw-r--r-- guif/users        0 2024-08-06 15:50 test/file2

I want to extract the symlink. With the getmember method I receive a valid member of the tar archive.
Using this member in the extractfile however results in an error.

#!/usr/bin/env python

import tarfile


def main():
    with tarfile.open('./test.tar') as tar_file:
        member = tar_file.getmember('test/mylink')
        file_content = tar_file.extractfile(member)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Traceback (most recent call last):

    file_content = tar_file.extractfile(member)

    raise KeyError("linkname %r not found" % linkname)
KeyError: "linkname 'test//usr/bin/env' not found"

As you can see 'test//usr/bin/env can not be found.
The path does not look like the symlink I try to extract but more like <symlink name>/<link target>

From the doc:

Extract a member from the archive as a file object. `member' may be
a filename or a TarInfo object. If `member' is a regular file or
a link, an io.BufferedReader object is returned. For all other
existing members, None is returned. If `member' does not appear
in the archive, KeyError is raised.

CPython versions tested on:

3.10, 3.12

Operating systems tested on:

Linux

Lee tarfile.py alrededor de extractfile() y _find_link_target(), y luego ejecuta el archivo y el script proporcionados para reproducir el KeyError. Compara el comportamiento documentado para los enlaces con este caso de destino externo y añade cobertura de regresión que haga explícito el resultado previsto.
