Title: Fix search for bsdtar

Using `tar --help` on `bsdtar` doesn't show a `--strip-components` option like the GNU version (though it does show in the man page). Instead, explicitly check either for `strip-components` or `bsdtar`, which has supported strip-components for the same timeframe as GNU tar, with full support ~2006 for both.
