[libvirt] [PATCH] Tell automake to use tar-pax instead of tar-v7 for make dist

Commit 66a04090673a5e21700d11bdea0084f1ee870c24 updated the
API extention example patch series and added files that
results in filenames longer than 99 chars during make dist.
This is a problem because automake uses tar with the old v7
format during make dist. The v7 format is limited to 99 chars
per filename.

Use the newer and unlimited POSIX format instead.
