Rewrite to avoid some unnecessary casts, macros, literals.
(DEFAULT_PASSES, VERBOSE_UPDATE): Now constants, not macros. (SECTOR_SIZE, SECTOR_MASK): New constants. (fillpattern, dopass, do_wipefd, main): Remove unnecessary casts, and use the SECTOR_* constants when applicable. Check for size < 0 rather than size == -1, since negative-size files are a sign of trouble anyway. (dopass): Assume a continuable error if EIO even if the current position is not a multiple of 512.
