Remove --format=gnu from cuttlefish tar.
I'm not sure why this is here, since it seems to be a strictly worse
choice than the default "posix", but only in that device major/minor
numbers are limited to 63 bits rather than unlimited, which seems unlikely
to occur in practice anyway.
toybox tar doesn't support --format=, and from the GNU tar documentation
there doesn't seem to be much reason to try to do so, unless you
actually need to interoperate with historical systems from the 1990s.
