Due to the assumption of the Merkle tree block size being 4K, the file
size calculated for the second test case was taking way too long to hit
EFBIG in case of larger block sizes like 64K.  Fix this by generalizing
the calculation to any Merkle tree block size >= 1K.

v3: hashes_per_block, not hash_per_block
v2: Cleaned up the original patch from Ojaswin:
    - Explained the calculations as they are done.
    - Considered 11 levels instead of 8, to account for 1K blocks
      potentially needing up to 11 levels.
    - Increased 'scale' for real number results, and don't use 'scale'
      at all for integer number results.
    - Improved a variable name.
    - Updated commit message.

Hi Eric,

The comments look much better to me, thanks for the fix up. Tested on
powerpc with 64k and 4k tree sizes and the test passes fairly quickly so
patch looks good to me!

Hmm... There're two duplicated variables for "bc" --- BC and BC_PROG. I prefer
the later one. Anyway it doesn't affect this patch. I'll use another patch to
change all BC to BC_PROG, then remove BC.
