libnvdimm, label: populate the type_guid property for v1.2 namespaces

The type_guid refers to the "Address Range Type GUID" for the region
backing a namespace as defined the ACPI NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware Interface
Table). This 'type' identifier specifies an access mechanism for the
given namespace. This capability replaces the confusing usage of the
'NSLABEL_FLAG_LOCAL' flag to indicate a block-aperture-mode namespace.
