[issue19974] tarfile doesn't overwrite symlink by directory

[Vajrasky Kok]

Vajrasky Kok added the comment:

Serhiy commented, "I think we should remove targetpath in all cases. Not only when softlink is
extracted."

I already did that in my latest patch but I am a little bit wary of this behaviour.
