Log:
Add disklabel64 support to GEOM_PART class.
This partitioning scheme is used in DragonFlyBSD. It is similar to
BSD disklabel, but has the following improvements:
* metadata has own dedicated place and isn't accessible through partitions;
* all offsets are 64-bit;
* supports 16 partitions by default (has reserved place for more);
* has reserved place for backup label (but not yet implemented);
* has UUIDs for partitions and partition types;
Is this something worth adding to the installer/sade partition types
menu? On the one hand, we support it. On the other hand, it's not
bootable on any architecture. So I can't make up my mind.
