[PATCH] proposal to display uname/gname instead of uid/gid in tar

[Natanael Copa]

Attatched is a patch for tar that will display the unames/gnames in gnu
tar style.

If no uname or gname is available, display the uid/gid, just like gnu
tar does.

The patch includes a 6th itoa in busybox actually.

networking/netstat.c
shell/ash.c (named cvtnum)
shell/hush.c (named simple_itoa)
shell/lash.c
shell/msh.c

has all their own itoa function.

All of those should probably be collected in one single in libbb, but
that was not really what I was trying to solve right now.
