Use the --owner= and --group= options to make sure the entries in
the built tar file are owned by root. Without this change, a
careless sysadmin using the tar-pkg target can easily end up
installing a kernel that is writable by the unprivileged user
account used to build the kernel.
Test that these options are understood before using them so that
non-GNU versions of tar can still be used if the operator is
appropriately cautious.

Fix out-of-tree builds for the tar-pkg targets
When I wrote the buildtar script, I didn't even think about
out-of-tree builds because I didn't use these back then. This patch
throughoutly uses ${objtree} instead of `pwd`.
Also, the kernel version is no longer manually built. Instead, it will
properly use $KERNELRELEASE . Installing modules is only done if
CONFIG_MODULES is set.

It adds tarball packaging, which I prefer for distribution.
Also one of the two blanks after @echo is removed. One seems to be enough :)
