as summary

=== Increase max piece size ===
Optimal piece count is ~1500. mktorrent allows up to 2^28 currently, thus
providing ability to create torrents for 375 GiB of data with optimal piece
count. Increased maximum piece size to 2^30 thus allowing torrents for 1.5 TiB
of data (again, with optimal piece count).

=== Make tracker optional ===
mktorrent currently can't create torrents without announce URL. Since DHT works
perfectly well nowadays, this limitation doesn't make any sense. Changed to
require tracker only when creating private torrent (i.e. DHT, PEX, etc
disabled).
