--one-top-level: avoid a heap-buffer-overflow

* NEWS: Mention this.
* src/suffix.c (strip_compression_suffix): Fix string comparison guard.
Without this change, some ASAN-enabled test runs would fail with the
following.  Also, strip an additional .tar suffix only if the just-
stripped suffix did not match /^\.t/".
