tests: stabilize `test-split-legacy-inline-changelog.t` on Windows

The `tar` command is unable to process "C:\path\to\foo.tar" style paths, which
is how `$TESTDIR` is constructed.  It also didn't work with
`$TESTDIR_FORWARD_SLASH`- both failed with:

    tar: Cannot connect to C: resolve failed
    [128]

But `cat` can handle it if the path is quoted, and `tar` can read from stdin.

To run the tests, do:

cd tests/
python run-tests.py
