Summary

Having identified the the source of our build woes in #3063, we will take inspiration from apollographql/apollo-runtime#71 and replace tar in our test and dev containers with bsdtar.

Other remarks

The long-term fix is #3051 and moving away from emulated builds. In the meantime, I'm willing to tolerate this divergence between the test container and the actual runtime containers. (If explicitly setting LANG and LC_ALL reveals or masks an issue, that's probably interesting in an of itself.)

@patrickbrophy @turetske I believe the two of you are the ones who need to patch this back to 7.22 and 7.23. This PR fixes an issue where, when trying to publish a release or release candidate, the test container fails to build, and hence the unit tests don't run.

The GitHub Actions should no longer require it as of PelicanPlatform#3051. Local builds
might still need it, but the fewer one-off hacks that are incorporated into
the CI pipeline, the better.
