[aur-dev] [PATCH 3/8] Update docs to require Archive_Tar version greater than 1.3.7

Prior to version 1.3.8 of Archive_Tar, long filenames within a tar file
would result in the filename being a shortened string of the fullname. This
shortening would prevent the upload of any tar file having a filepath longer
than 99 characters. Require AUR installations to use an update Archive_Tar
version to avoid related issues

Fixes FS#30472
