5201042924 Add support for setting GPT partition labels. The partitions to be
labeled are selected in the same way as with the remove command.
Update the manpage to have the selection options described for the
label command and referenced to it from the remove command.
The label can be specified on the command line with the -l option
or read from a file with the -f option. In both cases, the label
is assumed to be encoded in UTF-8.

8a399540fa - distinguish between the device name (what the user called it on the
command line) and the device path (what we passed to open()).  Use
  the former in diagnostics.
- when adding or removing partitions, print a single line to stdout for
  each partition that was added or removed, indicating its name.
- add an -a option to 'gpt remove' which must be explicitly specified
  to remove all partitions.

9e57e1869c Add an -f option (for force) to the migrate command. Normally an MBR
with unknown partitions is not migrated. By specifying the -f option
migration will happen and unknown partitions will be lost.

597c201050 Add an -f option (for force) to the create command. The -f option
allows the user to force the creation of a GPT even when there's a
MBR on the device. The MBR is simply wiped and any partitions
described by it are lost. Without the -f option one cannot create
a GPT when there's a MBR.

d88642fe52 Remove the -k option to migrate. The option causes gpt(8) to preserve
the MBR after it is migrated to a GPT. While this was useful during
the early days when GPT support was under development, it's something
that users can use without knowing what they're getting themselves
into. The possible harm outweights the marginal usefulness it now has.

f61bdfe072 o Save the partition number (=index) in the internal map. The index
starts at 1. No index is represented by 0.
o  Change the show command to display the partition number at the expense
   of the partition end columm. We already display the start and size.
o  Enhance the add command to accept the -i option. The -i option allows
   the user to specify which partition number the new partition should
   get.
o  Update the manpage accordingly.
