Log:
  ar: Disallow directory traversal
  
  Set ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_SECURE_SYMLINKS and ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_SECURE_NODOTDOT
  as in bsdtar to prevent extraction of archive entries whose pathnames
  contain .. or whose target directory would be altered by a symlink.
  Also disallow absolute pathnames.
  
  We don't currently provide an option to disable this behaviour (as
  bsdtar's -P does). It is unlikely to be a problem in practice for ar(1),
  but the -P option is not currently used and available if we want to
  consider it for this purpose.
