The FAT filesystem partition volume label can be read with
FAT_IOCTL_GET_VOLUME_LABEL and written with FAT_IOCTL_SET_VOLUME_LABEL.

FAT volume label (volume name) is exactly same stored in boot sector and root
directory. Thus, the boot sector just needs to be upgrade when the label
writing.

1. find the volume label entry through the scan function.
2. the volume label only retains the d-characters (reference from Ecma-107).

v4:
1. read/write volume label from/to the location of the respective version.
2. correct volume label check reference from mkfs.fat.
3. fixed some code issue.

v3:
1. write volume label both boot sector and root directory.

v2:
1. add filesystem version check.
2. add diretory permissions check.
3. add volume label string check.
4. fixed part of return value.
5. fixed some indent issue.
6. remove sync_dirty_buffer().
