Add device id information to Disk

[pkolaczk]

On Unix, Rust allows one to query device identifiers for file, using a system specific MetadataExt trait. It would be awesome if there was a way to match those ids to disks returned by sysinfo. But unfortunately sysinfo returns only device name, not id.

Any ideas how to get the device id from its name?

The problem here is the cross-platform support where each system has huge hacks in order to provide something unified. I don't have much time lately so unless it's a bug, I won't look at it for some time, however the source code to get the disks is generally pretty short so don't hesitate to take a look and see if a solution can be reached to get this information.
