Fixes a bug with the timestamps and mode data not being restored when compressed archives are unpacked - essentially these data items were not being stored when the archives were made so can't be recovered.
The fix is to explicitly add an entry for the top-level directory when
tar.gzarchives are generated using themake_archive_tgzandmake_archive_multitgzfunctions (it also means that empty top-level directories no longer to be treated as a special case).
