The iocharset specified by the mount option should be used instead of always using utf8.

If the new volume label contains invalid characters, an error should be returned.

Invalid characters are defined at

When formatting a partition, exfatprogs's mkfs will create a label directory
entry regardless of whether the user specifies a label.
 
However, on Windows or when using other mkfs, no label directory entry
may be created. In this case, if we want to set a volume label, should we 
create it with an empty directory entry (TYPE_DELETED or TYPE_UNUSED)?
Should we even allocate a new cluster if there's no empty directory entry?
