restore "resync" messages

Description:
	When restoring a dump tape made on a file system with a fragment
	size greater than the tape block size (TP_BSZE, 1K), restore constantly
	loses "sync" and prints a message.  No harm is done, but the message
	stream is annoying and irrelevant.
Repeat-By:
	Do a restore from a dump tape made from a file system with
	a fragment size of 2, 4, or 8K.
Fix:
	It would no doubt be better to change "dump", but we are running
	Don Speck's fast version, with which I do not want to mess.  So,...
	Make the following changes in /usr/src/etc/restore/tape.c
