Subject: [PATCH] Fix persistence-label.
Setting old_{root,home}_overlay_label made a bit of sense for
persistence-subtext, which *adds* a suffix to the end of the default
labels (so they'll remain different), but it does not make any sense
for persistence-label, which sets them, and custom_overlay_label, to
the *same* value. Due to the latter persistence-label is currently
broken; if a label is found, the corresponding device/image will be
used three times as a persistent media: (1) as a "standard" overlay,
(2) home-rw and (3) live-rw backwards compatibility overlays. In my
tests, this results in no persistence at all.
