Currently, when we detect that tar is BSD-tar, we fake an unsupported
version (major, minor) and rely on the version check to reject BSD-tar.
There is no reason to use such shenanigans, when we can simply reject it
from the onset.
Simplify the logic:
- use positive logic in the condition
- directly exit in error
Also, comment that case like the other cases are commented.
