Issue #6856: Add a filter keyword argument to TarFile.add().
The filter argument must be a function that takes a TarInfo
object argument, changes it and returns it again. If the
function returns None the TarInfo object will be excluded
from the archive.
The exclude argument is deprecated from now on, because it
does something similar but is not as flexible.
