Let cfdisk use the internal libblkid if available to get the filesystem
type and label.
[kzak@redhat.com: - remove old FS probing code from cfdisk
- remove "Linux" prefix for filesystem names
- enlarge fstype field in partition_info
- restrict probing area by partition size]

Those 4 functions are marked as LEGACY in POSIX.1-2001 and removed in
POSIX.1-2008.
Replaced with memmove,memset,strchr and strrchr.

Fix fdisk and cfdisk to be consistent about maximum heads
Without this patch, fdisk allows up to 256 heads to be set via the menu, but
only up to 255 heads by command line -H. Similarly, cfdisk's -H option also
enforces heads <= 255 instead of heads <= 256.
The strange limit of 256 comes about because (heads - 1) should fit in a
single byte for legacy CHS. Geometries of 256 heads and 32 sectors are seen
in disks from other operating systems where cylinder-aligned partitions
which are also aligned to a 4MB boundary are wanted.

Accept "yes" or "no" as fallback in case the question
has not been translated.
[kzak@redhat.com: note that rpmatch(3) looks at only the first
character of response, but we need have to
check the full yes/no string.]

BLK* and HDIO_* are not available on all platform. Work around this
in a few places.

- #include <linux/types.h> is turned into #include <stdint.h>, much more
portable, and __uxy were turned into uintxy_t.

There is absolutely no reason why cfdisk should not display
cylinders beyond 1024. The number of cylinders needs to be
truncated only for the CHS field.

Add a missing period, a missing space, a comma and a word for clarity,
plus a period and an uppercase letter to match surrounding messages.
Further add a missing call to gettext, and undo an unneeded linewrap.

The GPT (GUID Partition Table) is unsupported by fdisk, sfdisk and
cfdisk. Unfortunately, the fdisk doesn't complain about GPT.. that's
dangerous, because user is able to blindly edit PT with unexpected
results.
