add fix by Minoura Makoto to correctly support recursive extended partitions.
...
the offset of an extended sub-partition is the offset of the top-level
extended partition, not the partition before it (this is annoying, and
makes `clean' recursive mbr descent difficult). fixes PRs 11829 and 12677.

Only use int13 extensions if the sectors can not be read through the
...
older CHS interface. This works around stupid BIOSs who report that
int13 extensions are present and functional, but fail when you actually
use them. Like Adaptec SCSI BIOSs.
For the bootselector, there was no space to get the CHS info from
the BIOS. Instead, use a flag that can be set by fdisk. fdisk will
set it if one of the partitions on the disk is out of CHS reach
for this disk/BIOS, so that the bootselector will use int13 extensions.
This isn't so bad, because it needs to be configured via fdisk anyway.
Change the mbr manualpage to reflect some shorter error messages.

should the bootselector menu and partition table get out of sync
somehow. (mmm, bytesqueezing)
