[MMC] Always use a sector size of 512 bytes
Both MMC and SD specifications specify (although a bit unclearly in the MMC case) that a sector size of 512 bytes must always be supported by the card. Cards can report larger "native" size than this, and cards >= 2 GB even must do so. Most other readers use 512 bytes even for these cards. We should do the same to be compatible.
