blkpr: prepare for _IOR() ioctls
parse_pr_command() returns the ioctl command constant for a given
command or -1 when the command is unknown. Up until now all ioctl
command constants were positive, so the following check worked:
if (command < 0)
err(EXIT_FAILURE, _("unknown command"));
The top two bits of ioctl command constants encode the direction (_IO,
_IOR, _IOW, _IOWR). ioctl commands defined with _IOR have negative ioctl
command constants.
Explicitly check for -1 to differentiate "unknown command" from valid
ioctls commands. Later commits will add ioctl commands that use _IOR.

The existing code tries to only print content of non-empty files, but
does not check the target of an encountered symbolic link, which could
be even something else, e.g. a fifo. Add the missing check to the
motddir_filter function.
Even though alarm(0) is called, another process could still send a
SIGALRM signal to the login process, which could trigger a use after
free for a tiny amount of time.
Not able to reproduce without adding a proper sleep.
The util-linux project preferred coding style is based on the kernel
coding-style (https://docs.kernel.org/process/coding-style.html),
which explains that opening braces should be on a line on their own
after the function signature. Therefore, let us adapt functions that
violate this convention.

tests: add regression test for repeated termreduce printing
Add a regression test that verifies repeated printing of the same
libsmartcols table produces identical output when termreduce is used.
Before the fix, the effective output width would shrink on each print,
resulting in progressively truncated output. The test guards against
future regressions by ensuring printing remains stable across
invocations.
Add a small test helper program that creates a libsmartcols table,
applies scols_table_reduce_termwidth(), and prints the table multiple
times within the same process.
The helper is used by regression tests to detect unintended cumulative
width reduction across repeated printing.

libsmartcols: avoid cumulative width reduction during printing
__scols_initialize_printing() applied scols_table_reduce_termwidth()
by mutating table->termwidth via scols_table_set_termwidth().
When printing is performed repeatedly on the same table (e.g. in
interactive applications), this causes the effective output width
to shrink on each invocation, eventually truncating output.
Introduce an internally computed effective output width and stop
modifying termwidth during printing. All layout calculations are
updated to use the derived width instead, making the printing path
idempotent.
No functional change is expected for single-shot printing.

tests: fdisk: add regression test for missing EBR gap between logical partitions
Add a DOS/MBR test case where the first logical partition starts at 6145
(extended start 2048). In the regressed behaviour fdisk allows the next
logical partition to start at prev_end+1, which would place its EBR
(start - 2048) inside the previous logical partition.
The expected behaviour is to require the next starting sector to be at least
prev_end + 2048 + 1 (e.g. 790528 in the testcase).
fdisk could accept adjacent logical partitions, causing the EBR for the new
logical partition to be written inside the previous partition’s data area.
This can corrupt the EBR chain.
Fix free-sector search to keep an EBR gap (first_lba) after logical partitions.
