Title: Strip spaces from octal fields for old tars

This is related to: https://github.com/bower/bower/issues/1537

Older tars prefix some fields with spaces: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/tar.git/tree/src/list.c#n742

This fix strips spaces before reading octal fields.

Please merge and release asap, as bower's users are suffering.
