block/vpc: Fix conversion from size to disk geometry
The VHD algorithm calculates a disk geometry which is usually smaller than the requested size. QEMU tried to round up but failed for certain sizes: qemu-img create -f vpc disk.vpc 9437184 would create an image with 9435136 bytes (which is too small for qemu-img convert). Instead of hacking the geometry algorithm, the patch increases the number of sectors until we get enough sectors.
