tests: portability fixes in tests on amhello examples

* tests/amhello-binpkg.test: Don't use "tar xzf too.tag.gz" to
extract a gzip-compressed tarball, that's unportable to some
tar implementations; use the "gzip -dc fo.tar.gz | tar xf -"
idiom instead.
* tests/amhello-cflags.test: Likewise.
* tests/amhello-cross-compile.test: Likewise.

Suggestion from Ralf Wildenhues.
