Fail with error if file already exists. File is not silently overwritten but an error is raised. Fixes: ziglang#18089
Like in issue ziglang#18089, this tar contains, same file name in two case sensitive name version. Unpack should fail on case insensitive file systems and succeed on case sensitive. $ tar tvf 18089.tar 18089/ 18089/alacritty/ 18089/alacritty/darkermatrix.yml 18089/alacritty/Darkermatrix.yml
Report file name which failed to create in all cases.
Or other platform which don't support symlinks.
It was not returning error in all cases. Bug in refactoring.

Don't silently overwrite files on tar unpack, return error instead.
In #18089 we are unpacking tar which has same file with different casing in name:
On case insensitive file system (windows, macOS) that results in latter overwriting former silently. Further in the process that results in different package hashes between case sensitive and case insensitive operating systems.
From #18089:
That is what this commits do.
And some improved error reporting. That case on macOS now gives:
Another case where it is possible that we get file overwrite is when we unpack with strip_components > 0. That can result in files with same path/name, when leading component is stripped, to overwrite one another.
Fixes #18089
