Pull Request description

now we can use hdl_dump as source for the linux device-mapper : hdl_dump toc /dev/loop0 --dm | sudo dmsetup create --concise ( that equivalent to kpartx -a disk.img with our sony APA disk ).

Now , size on ISO is accurate, you can directly checksum the mapped device and find the right number according to redump.org . No additional project like apascan to maintain, and much.

@chewi : things kewl with your apascan, it still compile and run today with latest kernel with just a warning or two ! but like i said, i've more interest to put this kind of stuff as that. PS2 scene still alive ! Thanks for your contribution.
