libnvdimm, label: switch to using v1.2 labels by default
The rules for which version of the label specification are in effect at any given point in time are as follows: 1/ If a DIMM has an existing / valid index block then the version specified is used regardless if it is a previous version. 2/ By default when the kernel is initializing new index blocks the latest specification version (v1.2 at time of writing) is used. 3/ An environment that wants to force create v1.1 label-sets must arrange for userspace to disable all active regions / namespaces / dimms and write a valid set of v1.1 index blocks to the dimms.
