Summary: Add sector size autodetect code

Initial Comment:
It seems that we could add code to try some other sector sizes if autodetection during a file or volume system open fails.  For example, in the _open commands, try different sector sizes (4096, etc.) if the default one fails to detect any known file or volume system.

Message:
r116 in trunk does this for mac partitions.  Tries 4096 if 512 fails.
