[Math] Logarithmic scale in VirtualBox GUI

Suddenly, I've found a logarithmic scale in the horizontal scroller in VirtualBox GUI:

It's indeed a good idea.

• There is a huge difference between 1G and 2G.
• There is a (maybe significant) difference between 5G and 6G.
• There is a (slight) difference betewen 10G and 11G.
• The difference between 100G and 101G is hardly noticable.
• The difference between 1000G and 1001G is negligible.

Of course, no one really need to allocate precisly 1001G to VM. 1000G would be OK, as well as 1024G and maybe even 1050G, 1100G...
