Anchor block can be located at several places on the medium. Two of the
locations are relative to media end which is problematic to detect. Also
some drives report some block as last but are not able to read it or any
block nearby before it. So let's first try block 256 and if it is all fine,
don't look at other possible locations of anchor blocks to avoid IO errors.
This change required a larger reorganization of code but the new code is
hopefully more readable and definitely shorter.
