geom_gpt.c should have been repocopied to part/g_part_gpt.c.

As you know very well, geom_gpt.c rev 1.41 introduced a regression
which makes it impossible to attach GPTs created with earlier FreeBSD
versions.  I can't see any mention of this in either commit logs or
code comments, and the code has changed so much that it is impossible
to determine if this issue has been addressed.
