Correct a bug introduced in commit 52815877, 2007-06-15,
"Make loop_probe and loop_clobber work with sector_size > 512, too."
* libparted/labels/loop.c (loop_clobber): Initialize "i" before
the loop, not inside it.
* tests/t0400-loop-clobber-infloop.sh: Test for this.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
