Parted 1.2.10

Hi all,

Changes since 1.2.9:
* changes to metadata partitions on MS-DOS disk labels:
        - made metadata partitions always "fill up the gap" between the
        start of the cylinder, and the start of the partition
        - added a metadata partition at the end of the disk, after the last
        (full) cylinder
* added a test for adding a partition at the end of the disk, to the regression 
tests
* fixed a bug in the front end - doesn't seg fault on insufficient arguments
now, when the command is the second on a command line ;-)   (count_words()
was broken)
* removed memory leaks / brokenness in _init_fats(), and fat_{read|write}().
_init_fats() now fat_table_destroy(fat->table) rather than
ped_free(fat->table).  fat_{read|write} now read/write fs_info->fat_sectors,
as opposed to ft->raw_size.
* fixed ped_disk_minimize_extended_partition() - now gets the minimal start
and end of the partition in update mode (i.e. metadata don't count as
partitions).
* added a check for iconv().  Now works with a separate libiconv, in theory ;-)
* fixed Yet Another msdos_align_partition() bug
* added malloc() debugging to regression tests
* removed a memory leak / brokenness in general, by adding ped_disk_free()
* removed a memory leak from do_mklabel() - wasn't ped_disk_close()'ing the
new disk
* removed a memory leak from the exception system
* removed a memory leak for FatOpContext - the buffer_map wasn't getting
freed.
* added ped_device_{begin|end}_external_access()
* commented out that annoying FAT system file check.  Never had any bug reports
with it, and it annoys the crap out of everyone (!)
