tarfile: Handle deprecation warning for extract and extractall (#81545)

* Python 3.11.4 introduces a new parameter 'filter' in extract and
extractall in tarfile. Handle deprecation warning message emitted
in Python 3.12.
* added probing mechanism in ansible-galaxy code to detect broken
data filter implementation in tarfile.

Fixes: #80832

+- tarfile - handle data filter deprecation warning message for extract and extractall (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/80832).
+- ansible-galaxy - Enabled the ``data`` tarfile filter during role installation for Python versions that support it. A probing mechanism is used to avoid Python versions with a broken implementation.
