Subject: give the ext4 image a disk label

 - this allows the kernel cmdline and fstab to refer to it by label
   instead of by /dev/sda or /dev/vda (depending on whether the disk is
   attached to qemu via virtio or not)
 - it allows other consumers of the image to detect that this is an
   image created by debvm and then treat it accordingly
