Strings read from devices may sometimes fail to be
NULL-terminated. The functions in lib/string.c are subject to
failure in this case. Protect against observed failures in
set_gpt_info() by switching to length-checking variants with a length
limit of the maximum possible partition table length. At the same
time, add a few checks for NULL string pointers.
Here is an example as observed in sandbox under GDB:
=> gpt verify host 0 $partitions
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
