bug#15591: [PATCH] libparted: handle i18n gpt partition names correctly
gpt.c was simply truncating the UTF-16 characters stored in the partition name field to 8 bits. This corrupted non ascii characters which later resulted in parted crashing in strlist.c trying to convert the now invalid multi byte characters to wchar. gpt.c will now properly convert the UTF-16 to the current locale encoding.
