Add 'feature-large-sector-size'

As explained in Xen commit 67e1c050 "public/io/blkif.h: try to fix the
semantics of sector based quantities" [1], frontends that always
supply and interpret sector based quantities in terms of the 'sector-size'
of the backend should declare 'feature-large-sector-size'.
