libnvdimm: namespace indices: read and validate
This on media label format [1] consists of two index blocks followed by
an array of labels. None of these structures are ever updated in place.
A sequence number tracks the current active index and the next one to
write, while labels are written to free slots.
+------------+
| |
| nsindex0 |
| |
+------------+
| |
| nsindex1 |
| |
+------------+
| label0 |
+------------+
| label1 |
+------------+
| |
....nslot...
| |
+------------+
| labelN |
+------------+
After reading valid labels, store the dpa ranges they claim into
per-dimm resource trees.
