a84db18fc7 tar,unzip: postpone creation of symlinks with "suspicious" targets
This mostly reverts commit bc9bbeb2b8
"libarchive: do not extract unsafe symlinks unless $EXTRACT_UNSAFE_SYMLINKS=1"

Users report that it is somewhat too restrictive. See
https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=8411

In particular, this interferes with unpacking of busybox-based
filesystems with links like "sbin/applet" -> "../bin/busybox".

The change is made smaller by deleting ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_QUIET flag -
it is unused since 2010, and removing conditionals on it
allows commonalizing some error message codes.
