[aur-dev] [PATCH] Allow pkgsubmit to accept any tar* file

[Dan McGee]

Instead of restricting to gz and bz2, allow just plain tar and any other
format tar can understand to be uploaded. I make the mistake all the time of
forgetting to pass -z to tar when making something to upload, and there is
no real reason to exclude plain tar files.
