libarchive: ignore CVE-2023-30571

This issue was reported and discusses under [1] which is linked in NVD CVE report. It was already documented that some parts or libarchive are thread safe and some not. [2] was now merged to document that also reported function is not thread safe. So this CVE *now* reports thread race condition for non-thread-safe function. And as such the CVE report is now invalid. The issue is still not closed for 2 reasons: * better document what is and what is not thread safe * request to public if someone could make these functions thread safe This should however not invalidate above statment about ignoring this CVE.
