Subject: [PATCH] archive/tar: do not populate user/group names

This reverts part of commit 29a18899379c ("archive/tar: populate
uname/gname/devmajor/devminor in FileInfoHeader"). The reason is
using os/user functions to resolved uids/gids to names breaks
the static build for Linux/glibc case (the resulting binary panics
on NULL pointer dereference).

For much more details, see https://github.com/golang/go/issues/23265
