In both tests, the "file changed as we read it" warning might be
produced for dir/sub, depending on the ctime resolution and timing.
The problem was fixed by 64b43fdf70, but regressed
after e7cd377f78, which removed 1 second
delays between each pair of checkpoints. Since the presense or absense
of this warning is irrelevant for the test, it is now suppressed.
* tests/dirrem01.at: Suppress the file-changed warning.
* tests/dirrem02.at: Likewise.
This action instructs tar to pause until given signal is delivered.
The newer genfile tool uses this action for communication between
genfile and tar in exec mode. This eliminates race conitions and
speeds up the tests based on exec mode.
* doc/tar.texi: Document changes.
* paxutils: Upgrade.
* src/checkpoint.c: Implement the wait action.
* src/common.h (decode_signal): New proto.

to use the new feature.

Previously the '--checkpoint-action=echo' was triggered after
'--checkpoint-action=sleep=1' - so the order of events *usually*
was (for --format='gnu'):
...
1. checkpoint handler before write of 'dir/sub' member
2. one-second delay
3. stderr write: 'tar: Write checkpoint 3'
4. write the member 'dir/sub' into the archive
5. check that the member's ctime has not been changed
6. genfile's detecting 'Write checkpoint', doing unlink
...
But sometimes, the genfile was fast enough to win the race and
unlinked the directory before the member was written into the
archive (IOW, the order was 1-2-3-6-4-5). This led to the
occasional warning 'tar: dir/sub: file changed as we read it'.
Swap the order of 'sleep=1' and 'echo' actions so the genfile
utility has (hopefully) enough time to do the unlink before
writing the file into the archive (enforce 1-2-3-6-4-5 order).
* tests/dirrem01.at: Swap 'sleep=1' and 'echo' actions.
* tests/dirrem02.at: Likewise.
