Subject: [PATCH] fix: Make the untar example create parent directories if they
 don't exist (like mkdir -p)

This lets it deal with tar archives that are packaged like this:
usr/include/hello.h
usr/include/bye.h
usr/lib/libexample.a
Instead of requiring directory entries:
usr/
usr/include/
usr/include/hello.h (etc)

This helps since some tar archives (our own example tool, pack, for example, does this) are packaged without directory entries.
