This test depends on TarFile.addfile() to add tar member header without
writing the member data, which we write ourself using qemu-nbd. Python
3.13 changed the function in a backward incompatible way[1] to require a
file object for tarinfo with non-zero size, breaking the test:

     -[{"name": "vm.ovf", "offset": 512, "size": 6}, {"name": "disk", "offset": 1536, "size": 393216}]
     +Traceback (most recent call last):
     +  File "/home/stefanha/qemu/tests/qemu-iotests/302", line 118, in <module>
     +    tar.addfile(disk)
     +    ~~~~~~~~~~~^^^^^^
     +  File "/usr/lib64/python3.13/tarfile.py", line 2262, in addfile
     +    raise ValueError("fileobj not provided for non zero-size regular file")
     +ValueError: fileobj not provided for non zero-size regular file

The new behavior makes sense for most users, but breaks our unusual
usage. Fix the test to add the member header directly using public but
undocumented attributes. This is more fragile but the test works again.

This also fixes a bug in the previous code - when calling addfile()
without a fileobject, tar.offset points to the start of the member data
instead of the end.
