  archive-tar: convert snprintf to xsnprintf

MSYS2 emulates pseudo terminals via named pipes, and isatty() returns 0
for such file descriptors. Therefore, some interactive functionality
(such as launching a pager, asking if a failed unlink should be repeated
etc.) doesn't work when run in a terminal emulator that uses MSYS2's
ptys (such as mintty).

However, MSYS2 uses special names for its pty pipes ('msys-*-pty*'),
which allows us to distinguish them from normal piped input / output.

On startup, check if stdin / stdout / stderr are connected to such pipes
using the NtQueryObject API from NTDll.dll. If the names match, adjust
the flags in MSVCRT's ioinfo structure accordingly.

* jk/war-on-sprintf:
  archive-tar: convert snprintf to xsnprintf

Commit f2f02675 (archive-tar: use xsnprintf for trivial
formatting, 2015-09-24) converted cases of "sprintf" to
"xsnprintf", but accidentally left one as just "snprintf".
This meant that we could silently truncate the resulting
buffer instead of flagging an error.

In practice, this is impossible to achieve, as we are
formatting a ustar checksum, which can be at most 7
characters. But the point of xsnprintf is to document and
check for "should be impossible" conditions; this site was
just accidentally mis-converted during f2f02675.

test_patch_id_file_order shell function uses $name variable to hold
one filename, and calls another shell function calc_patch_id as a
downstream of one pipeline.  The called function, however, also uses
the same $name variable.  With a shell implementation that runs the
callee in the current shell environment, the caller's $name would
be clobbered by the callee's use of the same variable.

This hasn't been an issue with dash and bash.  ksh93 reveals the
breakage in the test script.

Fix it by using a distinct variable name in the callee.
