package/tar: drop specific version for host variant

Browse Source 
Now that we can generate reproducible archives, with all known tar
versions starting with 1.27, we don't need to clamp the host-tar
version to the old 1.29, and can now bump to any later version.

Drop the host-tar version, and use the same as the target variant.

Note that we still need the _SOURCE trick, to avoid depending on tar
to extract the tar tarball...
