[PATCH v2 0/2] 'part name' subcommand and some robustification

Implement a "part name" subcommand, mirroring the existing "part
number" subcommand.

In the discussion for v1 of that, it came up that there's a bit of
inconsistency in how much and what one can assume to be initialized in
'struct disk_partition' after a successful call of one of the
get_info* family of functions. The new patch 1/2 tries to consolidate
that by making sure all ->get_info invocations go through a common
helper that at least always initializes the string members.

Rasmus Villemoes (2):
  disk/part.c: ensure strings in struct disk_partition are valid after
    successful get_info
  cmd/part.c: implement "part name" subcommand
