This PR adds support for LABEL-based entries in fstab when mounting partitions during OS morphing.
Previously, OS morphing only handled UUID-based device references. As a result, cloud images that referenced the EFI System Partition using a filesystem label (for eg:
LABEL=UEFI /boot/efi vfat...) were not mounted correctly, causinggrub-installto fail with:grub-install: error: /boot/efi doesn't look like an EFI partition.
