kheaders: use 'tar' instead of 'cpio' for copying files
The 'cpio' command is used solely for copying header files to the
temporary directory. However, there is no strong reason to use 'cpio'
for this purpose. For example, scripts/package/install-extmod-build
uses the 'tar' command to copy files.
This commit replaces the use of 'cpio' with 'tar' because 'tar' is
already used in this script to generate kheaders_data.tar.xz anyway.
Performance-wide, there is no significant difference between 'cpio'
and 'tar'.
[Before]
$ rm -fr kheaders; mkdir kheaders
$ time sh -c '
for f in include arch/x86/include
do
find "$f" -name "*.h"
done | cpio --quiet -pd kheaders

[After]
$ rm -fr kheaders; mkdir kheaders
$ time sh -c '
for f in include arch/x86/include
do
find "$f" -name "*.h"
done | tar -c -f - -T - | tar -xf - -C kheaders

Revert commit 69ef0920bdd3 ("Docs: Add cpio requirement to changes.rst")
because 'cpio' is not used anywhere else during the kernel build.
Please note that the built-in initramfs is created by the in-tree tool,
usr/gen_init_cpio, so it does not rely on the external 'cpio' command
at all.
Remove 'cpio' from the package build dependencies as well.
