Removed high resolution low color modes as well. It seems unlikely that someone would run a high resolution low color mode. Rather these are for troubleshooting or limited hardware. 1920x1200 does not work, so I set 1920x1080 as the highest

Hi, I am not sure if you are open to taking pull requests. But I added widescreen resolutions to the VBoxVideo driver. That way if running OpenStep/NextStep/Rhapsody on a computer with a modern monitor, it will fill the whole screen.
I tested all the resolutions in the list:
"Height:1080 Width:1920 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:888/32";
"Height:1050 Width:1680 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:888/32";
"Height: 900 Width:1440 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:888/32";
"Height: 800 Width:1280 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:888/32";
"Height: 768 Width:1366 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:888/32";
"Height:1200 Width:1600 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:888/32";
"Height:1024 Width:1280 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:888/32";
"Height: 864 Width:1152 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:888/32";
"Height: 768 Width:1024 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:888/32";
"Height: 600 Width: 800 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:888/32";
"Height: 480 Width: 640 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:888/32";
"Height: 768 Width:1024 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:555/16";
"Height: 600 Width: 800 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:555/16";
"Height: 480 Width: 640 Refresh: 60Hz ColorSpace: RGB:555/16";
I tried to make it run at 1920x1200 but it booted a blue screen. Same with 2560x1440. So I think 1920x1080 is the highest we will get out of the VirtualBox VGA emulation.
One note is that I am not sure how you created the .IMG files, so in the build folder, I just added a Tar of the .config file. Happy to make the IMG files if you can provide instructions on how they are made.
Thanks,
Jeff
Happy New Year!
