commit: https://git.busybox.net/busybox/commit/?id=cb91a818c8f7730d8f3b30b5b4e75fd21496609f
branch: https://git.busybox.net/busybox/commit/?id=refs/heads/master
GNU binutils in deterministic mode (ar rD or built with
--enable-deterministic-archives) hard codes file mode to 0644 (NOT 0100644)
since https://github.com/bminor/binutils-gdb/commit/36e4dce69dd2
This confuses busybox ar x (data_extract_all):
touch a; ar rD a.ar a
ar: creating a.ar
busybox ar x a.ar
ar: unrecognized file type
hexdump -C a.ar

As a workaround, force the mode bits to S_IFREG, as nothing else makes sense
for ar.
