[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] rpmuncompress option `-C` does not work with some tar archives (Issue #3250)

[Mikolaj Izdebski]

**Describe the bug**
rpmuncompress option `-C` does not work with some tar archives (that do have a single top directory).
Related: #2859

**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. `wget https://src.fedoraproject.org/lookaside/pkgs/apache-commons-io/commons-io-2.16.1-src.tar.gz/sha512/07298e3af85726f2ec07a660fbb743f82cd88f8043a57e2e1063b758c81429dfafd77a024e2cdd48efe5d403299c20e898f5b3dd729f52bd55b8a6fb50c9a13a/commons-io-2.16.1-src.tar.gz`
2. `/usr/lib/rpm/rpmuncompress -x -v -C apache-commons-io-2.16.1 commons-io-2.16.1-src.tar.gz`

**Expected behavior**
Option `--strip-components=1` is passed to `tar` command.
Sources are unpacked directly in directory named `apache-commons-io-2.16.1`, per `-C` option.
Subdirectory `apache-commons-io-2.16.1/commons-io-2.16.1` is not created.

**Output**
Option `--strip-components=1` is not passed to `tar` command.
Sources are unpacked in directory `apache-commons-io-2.16.1/commons-io-2.16.1`.
```
$ /usr/lib/rpm/rpmuncompress -x -v -C apache-commons-io-2.16.1 commons-io-2.16.1-src.tar.gz
mkdir 'apache-commons-io-2.16.1' ;  /usr/bin/gzip -dc  'commons-io-2.16.1-src.tar.gz' | /usr/bin/tar -xvvof -  -C 'apache-commons-io-2.16.1'

[...]
```

**Environment**
 - OS / Distribution: Fedora Linux 42 (rawhide)
 - Version: rpm-4.19.92-6.fc41

**Additional context**
This affects multiple Java packages in Fedora, blocking adoption of `%autosetup -C` and declarative builds.
