Reduce warnings by using unsigned consistently; this fights
the KPMCore API (which uses signed sizes for, e.g. sectorSize)
a little, but states more clearly that a disk cannot have a
negative size.
Existing code reinitialized the layout, losing whatever
layout was set in the config. Refactor so that you can
access the partition-layout API, and change the default
FS through that -- which is the point of the code block
here in `doAutopartition()`, to look up the currently-
selected default FS.
Inspired by Santosh's work in #1903, #1759.
By default, calamares renames the label of root partition
to "root" overriding the name specified in partiton.conf

Don't do the actual KPM work, but pretend that they were done.
This can be useful -- independently of the existing unsafe-
options and failing partitioning entirely -- for testing
partition layouts in modules following the *partition* one.
- the length parameter to diskDescription() is worse than
useless, because it doesn't say anything about what will
be done if there's more than one disk.
- if nothing is selected (index -1, which now shows the placeholder), the text is empty
- if something has been entered, return it (e.g. if the user is typing)
- if something is selected, the text gets set to that anyway
The warning about the mount point -- that it was in-use or
invalid -- had been separated from the drop-down by the
FSLabel field. Move it back, rename the variable for
clarity while we're at it.
- make the boxes expand, rather than stick to a minimum
size that doesn't align with other boxes in the dialog,
and which may be too small to contain the text they display.
There is a mismatch between how the configuration interprets
*initialSwapChoice* when it is not a valid choice, and how
the UI interprets it. If you e.g. do not have a *userSwapChoices*
setting at all, whatever *initialSwapChoice* is set is interpreted
by the UI as "suspend".
Avoid that by putting the choice in the configuration and
warning the user (which ought to be a warning to the distro).

This is the infrastructure bit; if someone can come up with a way
of **meaningfully** detecting support, the detection function can
be given a better implementation.
FIXES#1725
- Use the Calamares support-functions for running lsblk and mount
(these might need to have privilege support if Cala is not
running as root, so this is future-proofing)
Most *partition* module jobs run an operation and turn that into
a JobResult -- ok if it succeeds, and with the report text otherwise.
Factor it out into a separate method that can be used as shorthand.
The translations apply to labels and a tooltip, which depends on
the partition-table type. Move the strings together and make
the whole range of the switch explicitly.
We want to use the KPMCore function consistently, but Calamares
uses a qint64 most of the time. Centralize the cast to double
in one place in the code.
- log device node (/dev/sdb) instead of its name
- don't log job's prettyName() because that's translated, and also
contains user-visible private names (introducing a non-translated,
nicely redacted version of prettyName() seems like too much effort
for something that can be reconstructed from bits earlier in the log)
- use hex-trailer
- while here, convert DebugRow to use a copy rather than a reference,
to avoid dangling references when applied to temporaries
- convert *partition* module to use the RedactedNames
- remove from GS
- remove duplication across Config and ChoicePage
- improve translations (presumably "msdos or gpt" is the most
complicated it will get)
FIXES#1735
- when (manually) using an existing LV, it shouldn't be closed
prior to formatting, since that kills the volume and then the
path (/dev/myvg/mylv) no longer exists. Then creating the
filesysytem on that device path fails.
- Strings were being used as logical values, and then logged
(which should be in English) and also used in the UI (which
should be localized). Replace with a MessageAndPath class,
used only locally, that defers the translation until called-
upon explicitly.
- Replace some VG stuff with similar calls to apply().
Returning partition full-paths instead of only the block-device-name
simplifies later code -- which would prepend /dev/ to the block-
device-name and umount that.
- the tryX() functions weirdly return a string that is used for
debug-logging. Document that. The untranslated string is
later used for user-facing messages. Mark that as FIXME.
- factor out the loop-over-names-and-append to news, because that
makes the overall story of what is happening hard to read.
- all calls to tryCryptoClose() called tryUnmount() first, so
put that call inside tryCryptoClose(), so the interface is simpler.
