mkisofs/genisoimage argument incompatibility causing error on MacOS #204

When running vmcloak init --verbose --win7x64 win7x64base --iso-mount xxxxx --cpus 2 --ramsize 2048,
I got the following error:
ERROR:vmcloak.abstract:Error creating ISO file (err=255): Bad Option '-allow-limited-size' (error -1 BADFLAG).

Seems like -allow-limited-size is an argument for geniso on Linux, but not for mkisofs on MacOS.
I solved it by pulling the source code, and removing this argument in /vmcloak/abstract.py on line 207.

If anyone runs into the same issue, this might be helpful. Or the developer could help solve this incompatibility in the code.
