Prevent crash when creating new partition on loop label (#721988)
Write a loop partition table to a disk and then try to create a new
partition on that disk crashes GParted.
Analysis:
1) Loop partition table, actually just the signature / label
"GNU Parted Loopback 0", is written to the disk.
2) create_partition() calls ped_disk_app_partition() to create the
partition which, arguably erroneously, clears the loop signature.
3) In erase_filesystem_signatures(), get_device_and_disk() fails because
there's no longer a loop signature for libparted to recognise. This
leaves lp_device, lp_disk and lp_partition = NULL, but incorrectly
overall_success = true.
4) Overall_success = true allows the signature erasure loop to run and
evaluate lp_device->sector_size, dereferencing a NULL pointer and
crashing GParted.
Fix erase_filesystem_signatures() to correctly handle failure from
get_device_and_disk(), broken by this commit:
