DISK: Fix VHD to Ensure that the CHS capacity exceeds the disk length

Browse source 
If the total sectors exceeds 127Gb this is not possible, but normal
simh disks are smaller and the largest user settable size via RAUSER
is just under 1Tb.  The excessive size case (>127Gb) will have a CHS
of 0xFFFF10FF.

simh never cares about the CHS Disk Geometry value in the VHD footer
data structure, but other applications which do care about the CHS
value using the previously incorrect value as the capacity of the disk
even though the Current Size indicated in the footer may have been
larger.
