lift block alignment requirement for tar archive rescue

It is unlikely that damaged archives have correctly aligned tar
headers. Thus we need to check each header-like section whether
it contains the right magic and the checksum matches. Objects
without a correct checksum (which spans the better part of the
header) are discarded similar to what file(1) does.
