This should use NVME_ID_CNS_NS_DESC_LIST.  nvme-cli doesn't currently
have that, but that's just a sign it needs a resync with the kernel
nvme.h.

Also personally I find the nvme_identify_* wrappers rather pointless,
and thin kthey should be removed instead of adding more.

libuuid usage in nvme-cli is conditional on LIBUUID.  Not that I
particularly agree on stubbing this depdency out..

Should use values from the updated nvme.h:

Same here.

Same here for the magic constant.

What's the point of this memcpy?  Alignment?
