fix: restore tar fallback when makepkg is not available

Browse Source 
Commit 32f04ae removed the tar fallback in Tgz::build(), requiring
/sbin/makepkg (Slackware-specific) for --to-tgz conversion. This broke
alien on all non-Slackware systems.

Restore the fallback using the same method as the original makepkg
script.
