- there are no consumers for checking-the-capacity-of-the-drive
This parameter was introduced in 3cd18fd285 as "preparatory work"
but never completed. The architecture of the PartitionCoreModule
makes it very difficult to get the necessary parameters to
the right place, and it would probably be better to put
a SortFilterProxyModel in front of a partitioning model anyway.
Since the display code can already filter on size, just drop this one.
- Initialize the attribute partAttributes to 0; it is a primitive type
and it is not initialized in some constructors.
Fixes commit c1b5426c6 ([partition] Add support for partition attributes).
- Move implementation of default constructor to cpp.
This commit adds the new configuration `efiSystemPartitionName` to the
file partition.conf.
This option sets the partition name to the EFI System Partition that is
created. If this option is unset, the partition is left unnamed.
- By the time the GS is actually written, new (for partition state)
is always false. So "new" is the wrong thing to track. It should
have had a better name anyway,
- We store custom properties on the partition objects to indicate
what happens to them; use those properties (instead of state,
as done originally), call it "claimed" to indicate that the partition
is part of this installation.
For now, only new (as in, formatted, created-by-us) partitions are
claimed.
- The effect here is that only "new" swap will be added to the system,
so in erase-disk installations, or manual partitioning.
- Install-alongside and replace will now **not** claim the swap already
on the disk; I think we'll need another UI knob for that one.
FIXES#1316
Introduces a "partitioning service" into libcalamares,
shuffles a bunch of things into it, tries to help out
with settling the system between partitioning actions.
- Starting to centralize utility code for partitioning into
libcalamares instead of scattered and weirdly shared between
modules.
- This particular commit breaks compiling the modules, though.
- The sub-directories under libcalamares (e.g. Utils, ..)
all live in namespace CalamaresUtils (well, except for Logger).
The services (e.g. subdirs other than utils/) live in their
own nested namespace, so partitioning should go into
CalamaresUtils::Partition for consistency.
Instead of relying on a module-specific implementation, use the new
PartitionSize class for storing partition sizes.

In order to prepare for future refactoring of the PartSize class, move
the bytesToSectors() function to libcalamares in the CalamaresUtils
namespace.

- This small header file contained a few unrelated typedefs.
Move those typedefs to the classes they relate to. This
**does** mean that some consumers need to #include something
else instead.
- Use type names more consistently.
Editorial: why are **pages** responsible for creating the jobs?
This commit adds several checks while reading the configuration of the
`partition` module, in case the partition layout configuration is
misformed. If an error is encountered, an message is printed to the
console and the module reverts to the default partition layout.
Checks are also added when implementing the partition layout, in case a
problem occurs that couldn't be anticipated (for example, when a
partition size is in %, checking its absolute value require knowing the
total device size, which is not the case when the configuration is
being read).

Every call of `ParseStringSize` is replaced by using an instance of the
`PartUtils::PartSize` class.
This commit also removes the now-unused previous size parsing functions.

In order to maintain consistency, and make use, create a new PartSize
class in the PartUtils namespace, which inherits from NamedSuffix for
easier parsing and handling of size strings.
The switch to using this class instead of the previous functions will be
done in a follow-up commit.

- KDE neon ships a post-3.3.0 KPMCore, with deprecations, but not yet
the KPMCore 4 API, so add another API-version check to handle the
deprecations. Keeps warnings down.
When using a custom partition layout with partition sizes in %, it can
be useful to set an upper limit to the partition size.
For instance, using a 20% size for the `/` partition will create a 24G
partition on a 120GB drive, but a 200GB partition on a 1TB drive, which
is not useful, and could be avoided by setting a maximum partition size.
This commit adds the `maxSize` parameter (with a default value of 100%).

- clear() signals modelReset(), which is true, but inconvenient
when we do a bunch of changes afterwards. Block signals,
and rely on own signaling when all of the changes are done.
- Keep blocking signals while updating the model, since the row
appends otherwise trigger a change in the connected combo box.
- For unsafe installations (compile-time option), make sure
things fail before partitions are actually written, unless
the other option is also turned off.
- This is a compile-time choice, and off by default. This may be useful
for developers that need to get through installation to a different
partition on their root drive.
- Add an option to avoid actually doing unsafe things. This is an extra
safeguard; you need to turn on one and turn off the other option to
really be unsafe.
As requested, this commit adds a new configuration option to the
partition.conf file, name `efiSystemPartitionSize`.
When this option is absent, the default size of 300MiB will be used.
