Honor the pax-option overrides when creating archive.
Changes proposed by Denis Excoffier. * NEWS: Fix typos. * doc/tar.texi: Fix typos. Improve recipe for creation of binary equivalent archives. * src/create.c (write_extended): Use the value of the --mtime option (if specified) as the default for exthdr.mtime. * src/xheader.c (xheader_store): Create the header if at least one override is supplied in --pax-option.
