sfdisk: warn if partition exceeds partition table limits

Warn the user if the partition to be created exceeds limits
imposed by the DOS partition table, which is:
* partition has to start on sector < 2^32
* partition size has to be < 2^32 sectors

For 512-byte logical sector size, these limits are ~2.2 TiB.
