After a short off-list discussion with Thomas, we decided to first
assert that the size is a multiple of 1024 and then simply use bs=1024.
If a new architecture with a strange-sized VARS file comes along we have
to adapt it though.

Moving to Ceph is very slow when bs=1. Instead, use the biggest possible power
of two <= 1024. At the moment our EFI image sizes are multiples of 1024, so
just using 1024 wouldn't be a problem, but this feels more future-proof.

I did not see an way for 'qemu-img dd' to use a larger blocksize while still
specifying the exact total size if it is not a multiple of the blocksize.
