dc6076187e gpt: consolidate crc32 computation code
The gcrypt API is overly verbose, wrap it up in a helper function to
keep this rather common operation easy to use.

4dd009a6fb gpt: record size of of the entries table
The size of the entries table will be needed later when writing it back
to disk. Restructure the entries reading code to flow a little better.

3b2674aef7 gpt: rename misnamed header location fields
The header location fields refer to 'this header' and 'alternate header'
respectively, not 'primary header' and 'backup header'. The previous
field names are backwards for the backup header.

f82f65f338 gpt: start new GPT module
This module is a new implementation for reading GUID Partition Tables
which is much stricter than the existing part_gpt module and exports GPT
data directly instead of the generic grub_partition structure. It will
be the basis for modules that need to read/write/update GPT data.

The current code does nothing more than read and verify the table.
