  underscore in mounted drive name mishandled in menu

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  If you have a mounted drive with an underscore in it's name (e.g.
  host_S), then, when you right-click on the drive icon in the sidebar,
  the menu interprets the underscore as a keyboard-shortcut indicator,
  so shows the name as hostS (with S underlined). Hovering over the
  drive results in the correct "host_S" name; the bug is only in the
  right-click menu. Note that right-clicking on the "Files" icon will
  show a menu that includes the correct mounted disk names. It is only
  right-clicking on the drive-icons themselves that shows the incorrect
  name.

  [Test Case]

  (1) Create a mountable device with an underscore in its volume name (eg. host_S).
  (2) Right click on the icon for tha drive in the Launcher.  It should display the underscore character correctly as a part of the drive name, and not as an underline.

  [Regression Potential]

  None.

  [Other Info]

  The fix for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS was cherry picked from the Ubuntu "Vivid
  Vervet" dev release where it has been in production use for some time
  without apparent regression.
