    ar: accept but ignore 'T' option

    In previous versions of BSD ar -T was an alias for -f -- use only the
    first 15 characters of archive member names.  In GNU ar and LLVM ar -T
    creates a thin archive.

    The -f / old BSD ar -T functionality is not particularly useful, and
    ignoring -T still results in a usable and compatible (but not thin)
    archive.

    An exp-run found a few ports invoking ar -T but they all expect thin
    archives.  In addition, -T will be used to specify thin archives after
    a migration to LLVM-ar.
