tarfile: don't interpret GNU-style atime as ustar-style path prefix

Bug report

Bug description:

The GNU and ustar tar format families have slightly overlapping header definitions: ustar says that bytes 345:500 are used for the "path prefix" i.e. for paths longer than the 100 char limit in the path field, while old-style GNU ("oldgnu") says that 345:356 are used for storing an atime attribute for the member.

Consequently, the two overlap (partially), and a tar parser should check the header's magic to determine how to interpret that byte range.

At the moment, CPython does not use the header's magic, and instead unconditionally interprets that range as a ustar-style prefix:

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/b11e749f7590e9a0907db908fa3e7e76c772c28f/Lib/tarfile.py#L1354

and then unconditionally uses that prefix as long as the member type (not the header type) isn't a special GNU member type:

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/b11e749f7590e9a0907db908fa3e7e76c772c28f/Lib/tarfile.py#L1383-L1385

The end result of this is that tarfile can extract a file with a surprising name, whereas other parsers extract with the correct (non-ustar-prefixed) name.

MRE:

import io
import tarfile

member = tarfile.TarInfo("victim")
header = bytearray(member.tobuf(format=tarfile.GNU_FORMAT))

# Old-GNU atime field: valid octal timestamp 1.
header[345:357] = b"00000000001\0"

# Recalculate checksum.
header[148:156] = b" " * 8
header[148:156] = f"{sum(header):06o}\0 ".encode("ascii")

archive = bytes(header) + b"\0" * 1024

with tarfile.open(fileobj=io.BytesIO(archive), mode="r:") as tf:
    print(tf.getnames())

On a main build as of b11e749f7590e9a0907db908fa3e7e76c772c28f, this produces:

['00000000001/victim']

whereas the output should be ['victim'], since the format is GNU_FORMAT instead of a ustar-family format.

I think the fix for this is to tweak the obj.name assignment to only use prefix when the magic bytes match POSIX_MAGIC, i.e. not GNU_MAGIC or any legacy (v7, pre-ustar) magic.

Inizia in Lib/tarfile.py, nell’analisi del prefisso e nell’assegnazione di obj.name in corrispondenza delle righe indicate, quindi riproduci il problema con l’MRE fornito. Il lavoro è completato quando l’archivio GNU-format restituisce ['victim'] invece di ['00000000001/victim']; controlla il PR collegato gh-155706 prima di iniziare.
