libnvdimm, label: populate the type_guid property for v1.2 namespaces
The type_guid refers to the "Address Range Type GUID" for the region backing a namespace as defined the ACPI NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table). This 'type' identifier specifies an access mechanism for the given namespace. This capability replaces the confusing usage of the 'NSLABEL_FLAG_LOCAL' flag to indicate a block-aperture-mode namespace. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
