0002-descriptor.patch descriptor
libdvdread is very likely to fail on discs/images that store their File
System Descriptor at the end of the disc/image rather than at the
beginning. This is due to the "strategy" libdvdread uses to find it:
libdvdread scans sequentially from the beginning of the disc/image for
the File System Descriptor and identifies it by a single byte tag.

Aside from wasting lots of time on discs/images that store their File
System Descriptor at the end there is quite a good chance to stumble
across a random data block that accidentally starts with this tag (and
failing on it) before finding the real File System Descriptor.

As far as I can see, at least CDBurnerXP seems to (be able to) create
such images - at least if my interpretation of the Implementation
Identifier "NMS DVDProLib" is correct.

This... well, let's call it ugly hack fixes this by obtaining
the File System Descriptor location from the Logical Volume Descriptor
