libext2fs: fix orphan file size > kernel limit with large blocksize
Kernel commit 0a6ce20c1564 ("ext4: verify orphan file size is not too big")
limits the maximum supported orphan file size to 8 << 20.
However, in e2fsprogs, the orphan file size is set to 32–512 filesystem
blocks when creating a filesystem.
With 64k block size, formatting an ext4 fs >32G gives an orphan file bigger
than the kernel allows, so mount prints an error and fails:
EXT4-fs (vdb): orphan file too big: 8650752
EXT4-fs (vdb): mount failed
Thus, orphan file size is capped at 512 filesystem blocks in both e2fsprogs
and the kernel.
