updated DumpMobiHeader version

Hi,

If you can find a couple of examples of mobi files that work (show as non-personal when *not* a commerical mobi on a PW) then we can run DumpMobiHeader_v012.py on them to see if they differ in any other way to what we are generating (except for the splitting part)

I have attached a zip of the latest version of DumpMobiHeader_v012.py in case you would like to use it for your testing.

It has a few additions for determining the section maps on more recent Kindlegen 2.9 made mobis and other metadata fields.

Notice in Kindle 2.9 generated mobis there is now a second BOUNDARY section followed by a CONT section with its own EXTH which as the following string in it (HD_CONTAINER) which seems to have an HD copy of the cover image stored in a CRES section in a large format.

Using vi or emacs in hexl-mode can show you an awful lot of goodies they are packing into their kindlegen output now. They are basically including everything but the kitchen sink (they have the complete kindlegen build log stored as well)

Hope you can track down what else needs to change.

Take care,

KevinH
