branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/next
If bsdtar is installed, fix script error for tar version detection.
bsdtar does not provide all expected command line (long) options
like "--hard-dereference". To ensure compatibility, mark version
of tar as 'invalid' and trigger build of 'host-tar'.
