[Libguestfs] [PATCH] daemon: use btrfs(1) to get btrfs labels

blkid(1) (or actually, libblkid) seems to handle file system labels up
to 127 characters. Considering that btrfs labels can be up to 255
characters, this means long labels are not read correctly (i.e. get
truncated) by blkid.

Get the file system type, and if btrfs is available invoke
`btrfs filesystem` to get the label of btrfs file systems.
