Allow larger block sizes with wt_binary_decode.py

      The wt_binary_decode.py tool is hard coded to assume that a block size larger than 512K indicates a corrupt block – i.e., that the size as stored in the page header is likely corrupt/garbage if it too big.

      MongoDB supports document sizes up to 16MB, so we can legitimately have blocks at least that big.

      We should change the limit in wt_binary_decode.py accordingly.
