When checking CDL formatted DASD for installed dump-tool (zgetdump -d),
we might stumble upon an 'empty' boot record pointer in the volume label
filled with bytes of 0x40 (EBCDIC spaces). This leads to the following
seek error reported:
# zgetdump -d /dev/dasdb
zgetdump: Could not seek "/dev/dasdb" (Invalid argument)
Check for empty boot record and return proper error code by
ngdump_get_eckd_part_num() in order to end up with a regular
"No dump tool found" message.

This commit introduces a new module containing various helpers for
NGDump stand-alone dump. The purpose of these helpers is to facilitate
the implementation of DT and DFI interfaces for NGDump, share code
between both, reduce duplication and enable unit testing later on.
