DMG files have a variable length with a UDIF trailer at the end of a
file. This UDIF trailer is essential as it describes the contents of
the image. At the moment however, the start of this trailer is almost
always incorrect as bdrv_getlength() returns a multiple of the block
size (rounded up). This results in a failure to recognize DMG files,
resulting in Invalid argument (EINVAL) errors.

As there is no API to retrieve the real file size, look for the magic
header in the last two sectors to find the start of this 512-byte UDIF
trailer (the "koly" block).

The resource fork offset ("info_begin") has its offset adjusted as the
initial value of offset does not mean "end of file" anymore, but "begin
of UDIF trailer".

(Stefan: Would that be difficult to add?)
