[Bug 243178] newfs_msdos: wrong FAT type determination

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=243178

--- Comment #6 from Damjan Jovanovic <[email protected]> ---
The other alternative, described on bug 290857, is to use FAT32 for these edge
cases (instead of FAT16 with unused space), but decrease the cluster size. When
cluster size is smaller, more clusters are necessary to span the volume, and
the larger number of clusters would satisfy the minimum number of clusters
requirement.

This can already be done with "newfs_msdos -c ...", however this is something
newfs_msdos should do automatically - users shouldn't need to be FAT experts to
create a FAT filesystem.
