chain.c32: fix test for partition types which can be hiddensyslinux-3.71-pre11
The result of shift in C is undefined if the shift count is greater than the width of type. On x86 the corresponding CPU instruction masks the shift count with 0x1f, therefore (mask >> (t & ~0x10)) & 1) gives false positives for types greater than 0x1f (e.g., the partition type 0x8e (Linux LVM) could be "hidden" to 0x9e).
