* Fix installing roles containing symlinks Fix sanitizing tarfile symlinks relative to the link directory instead of the archive For example: role ├── handlers │ └── utils.yml -> ../tasks/utils/suite.yml The link ../tasks/utils/suite.yml will resolve to a path outside of the link's directory, but within the role role/handlers/../tasks/utils/suite.yml the resolved path relative to the role is tasks/utils/suite.yml, but if the symlink is set to that value, tarfile would extract it from role/handlers/tasks/utils/suite.yml * Replace overly forgiving test case with tests for a symlink in a subdirectory of the archive and a symlink in the archive dir when these are not equivalent. * Build test case from role files to make it easier to add test cases Fixes ansible#82702 Fixes ansible#81965 Fixes ansible#82051 (cherry picked from commit e84240d)

SUMMARY
This may not be mergeable, but opening it for consideration for any branches affected by 3a42a00 which was a follow-up to a security fix (ddf0311). I would also be happy with just reverting 3a42a00 if that's an option.
Fix sanitizing tarfile symlinks relative to the link directory instead of the archive
For example:
role
├── handlers
│ └── utils.yml -> ../tasks/utils/suite.yml
The link ../tasks/utils/suite.yml will resolve to a path outside of the link's directory, but within the role
role/handlers/../tasks/utils/suite.yml
the resolved path relative to the role is tasks/utils/suite.yml, but if the symlink is set to that value, tarfile would extract it from role/handlers/tasks/utils/suite.yml
Replace overly forgiving test case with tests for a symlink in a subdirectory of the archive and a symlink in the archive dir when these are not equivalent.
Build test case from role files to make it easier to add test cases
