vesa: for jpg or png images, tile the image across the screen

If we specify a smaller image than the screen size, tile it across the
screen rather than leaving a big black box.  This may have to be made
configurable.

Also note that Syslinux currently does not handle the case of an image
bleeding off the end of the screen.

grldr of Grub4dos wants the partition number in DH:
0xff: whole drive

4-*:  logical partitions

Hmmm... there really isn't a huge reason not to do this
unconditionally, at least unless it's known to cause problems.  It
would be better, of course, if grldr used the standard DS:SI, but it
doesn't, so oh well.

Some info of a Grub4dos developer (Tinybit):
  GRLDR can be loaded at any address with alignment 16(i.e., a possible
  segment base address). Generally you want to load it at 0000:7C00, or at
  2000:0000. Of course you never load it at 0000:0000 or similar.

  Before jumping to the entry point at the very beginning of GRLDR, you
  should setup DL=(BIOS drive) and DH=(partition number). For partition
  numbers, 0 - 3 are primary, 4 - 0xFE are logical. (DH=0xFF) stands for
  whole drive(unpartitioned). DH will later be passed to
  install_partition(the third byte, from bit 16 to bit 23).
