Add a new optional boolean argument 'keepdirlink' to tar_in that passes --keep-directory-symlink to tar. This preserves existing symlinks to directories when extracting, which is important for usrmerge systems where /lib is a symlink to /usr/lib. Without this option, extracting a tarball containing lib/modules/... to / would replace the /lib symlink with a real directory, breaking the system.
