I'd like that. It's much cleaner.

Let's add a gpiod_set_label call. Currently there's a desc_set_label
in gpiolib, which is static inlined. We can either rename and promote
it to non-static, or add a new wrapping function.

I see. Perhaps we should not pass this to gpiod_request as the label,
or add a comment stating consumers can use the new gpiod_set_label call
to change it.
