Demonstrate the suggested workaround

Because I have talked about a possible workaround, I would also like to explain
how it is conceived and demonstrate that it would be applicable.

1. The workaround would require to include an additional step into the process
of storing a spredsheet document: Filter all the defined CF for their ranges,
and split every CF as well including cells with .Coulumn<1024 as some with
.Column>=1024 in two, one restricted to the old limit of 1024 columns, the
other restricted to the rest.
2. When loading such a file older versions currently destroying the complete
"supersize" CF could then accept the first part and ignore the second one. 
3. Versions >= 7.4.0 can even re-merge the pairs of ranges created the
described way.

Of course, I didn't create a private version of LibO for the demo, but did the
split "manually". The trick worked with V 7.3.6.

See new attachment
Open it first with 7.4 or higher. Then try 7.3.6 or the like.
