Log Message:
Update to version 1.21.

While here add HOMEPAGE.

Changes since last packaged version (1.10)

* important changes in version 1.21 9/11/2004:
This release holds only bugfixes.
-   Make the size of symlinks be 0 in tar headers, so the next entry
    is not interpreted as contents of the symlink (bug #7937)
-   Strip high bits from the mode of the file, as they are stored
    differently in the tar header
-   Make Archive::Tar be kinder to archives that contain garbage,
    proceeding anyway as long as that's possible.

* important changes in version 1.20 8/11/2004:
This release holds mostly bugfixes, in the form of a rewrite of
the handling of the 'prefix' header field.
-   Rewrote 02_methods.t to be more independant
-   Rewrote the way 'prefix' headers are dealt with
-   Require IO::String now to do archive stringification
-   Add new method 'full_path' to A::T::Item objects
    - this is used to fix bug 6938
-   A::T->new now accepts both a class and an object to be friendlier
    to users
-   On tar read errors, binary chunks are no longer dumped to STDOUT,
    but instead the error offset is reported
