[PATCH] gnu: Add GNU Fdisk.

This patch adds GNU Fdisk 2.0.0a.

Is it necessary to package the latest version too?  (The latest version
depends on this one [1].)

I'm not sure about the license.  'COPYING' is GPLv3, but sources use
GPLv2+.

That seems like a packaging bug in GNU Fdisk, so I’d wait until this is
solved.

To me that means the intent is to make it GPLv3+, so I’d write GPLv3+.
