extract the serial number part from the tape name

* be verbose, if requested
* handle return codes for function call
* to re-format an already partitioned tape, its need to be wiped first
* just simply removing data from tape does not free the occupied space
thus, we need to wipe it and format again to get full capacity of
the tape

* force reformatting for given tape
* wipe() does not make sence, since the used space will not be freed
without a format
