Tony Nicholson e1ce9f4f70 sim_imd: Check for EOF when reading IMD track headers
The recent change to check that the IMD file track header record is 5
bytes introduced a problem with the end-of-file triggering an open file
error - instead of the previous behaviour where the number of bytes in
the track header was ignored and end-of-file was checked.

I noticed this after fetching and compiling the latest simh altairz80 - it
was refusing to my mount floppy disk IMD image files (which I had made
from 8-inch floppies back in 2006).

```

File open error
```

Looking at the commit history, I saw the change by Howard Harte to
sim_imd.c to "Resolve CID 1502448, 1502460" - presumably to fix the
call to sim_fread() that was not checking the returned result.
Howard's "fix" broke the parsing of the IMD file sector headers by
not checking for an end-of-file condition (at the end of file it
would read 0 bytes and this was now treated as a fatal error - whereas
the old code had a check for end-of-file after the call to sim_fread()).

This commit now detects end-of-file correctly, as well as verifying
the track header is 5 bytes.
