Subject: [PATCH] Fix overlay file ownerships

By default, `tar` copies file ownership UID/GID.  This works fine when
the build is running in a rootless container, since the source UID/GID
numbers are mapped to 0/0 inside the container.  In other scenarios,
though, such as building in a microvm with the source directory on a
shared filesystem, the original numbers are preserved.  We need to
explicitly state that the files must be owned by root.
