Allow for easy increase of the VDI size

Description

A lot of people (looking at the forums) have a problem increasing the size of a vdi. With foresight this can be avoided (making it dynamic and big enough), but sometimes you just need to increase the size.

Since other virtualization tools also have the same problem, it would be great for VirtualBox to be able to do it in an easy way. I don't mind whether it would be via the GUI or a command-line tool.

As use case: Make a vdi of 3Gb (dynamic), install Windows XP in it and try to make it 8Gb big e.g.
