tar: fix mnemonic for f (#5859)
Before this patch the document suggested that the `f` allows the user to list some files to extract or insert to the archive.

This patch fixes that: the `f` allows an archive file to be specified. Without it the archive would be read from or written to stdout.

Toon Nolten 7904a322f2 tar: simplify extraction examples (#3336)
Dropped the examples for extraction of specific compressed archives, tar
has had autodetection of the compression for over two decades.

Removed the dashes. No versions of tar require them and all they do is
cost you POSIX compatibility. (POSIX tar did *not* allow for the
dashes.)

Sven-Hendrik Haase 6b906eae18 Make tar page consistent
It might confuse users if everything has no dash in front but the last command does. tar doesn't need the dash so let's keep it that way.

quarcu 09c2d66923 List content of tar file
List content of tar file. 

I recommend reducing amount of options regarding compressed files since on some OS are allowed only in -c mode.
Basically :
-j : bzip2
-J : xz
-z : bzip2

Additionally the extract should manage as tar -xf file no matter which compression.
