chainloader: patch in BPB's sectors_per_track and num_heads

Browse source 
These fields must reflect the ROM-BIOS's geometry for CHS-based
loaders to correctly load their next stage. Most loaders do not
query the ROM-BIOS (Int13.08), relying on the BPB fields to hold
the correct values already.

Tested with lDebug booted in qemu via grub2's
FreeDOS direct loading support, refer to
https://bitbucket.org/ecm/ldosboot + https://bitbucket.org/ecm/ldebug
(For this test, lDebug's iniload.asm must be assembled with
-D_QUERY_GEOMETRY=0 to leave the BPB values provided by grub.)
