The Qdiv roundup routine is essentially a fixed-point
division algorithm, using only integer math.
However, the version in the specs had a major error
that has been recently fixed (a missing quotient++).

Replace Qdiv roundup with a rewritten, simplified version.

v2: Remove divide/modulo operations from the inner loop.
