When setting the size of a partition without indicating the unit, two
problems occur:
- the size is parsed as an integer, not as a string, hence the
configuration parsing fails
- the size parser doesn't recognize the fact that the size has no units
and defaults to 100%
This patch fixes the configuration parsing as well as the size string
parsing.

When a partition doesn't have a minimum size in the partition layout
configuration, it defaults to using 100% of the available space.
This patch fixes this error by setting the minimum partition size to 0
when the attribute has been omitted.

- Use locale "C" for checking filesystem names
- Also check other possibilities and case-insensitive, to
be more forgiving of weird configurations (and localizations)
Due to a computation error when calculating the total drive space and
each partition's last sector, the last partition's last sector was out
of boundaries, leading to an error creating this partition.
This patch fixes the computation algorithm to get rid of this error.

Some code was copied and adapted from PartitionActions.cpp. For full
compliance, it is best to copy the copyright holders list from this file
to PartitionLayout.cpp.

When chosing the "Replace partition" option, free space is not handled
like any partition. In order to apply the custom partition layout in
that case too, we have to modify the code where "replace free space" is
handled.

In some cases where a custom partition layout is used, use of this
layout is mandatory (this can be the case when using a read-only rootfs
which is updated by block-cpying an image file to it).
For these cases, the user must not be able to change the partition
layout, therefore we have to disable manual partitioning.
In order to stay consistent with current behaviour, manual partitioning
is still enabled by default. It will only be disabled if the partition
module's config file contains the corresponding option set to "false".

When choosing "Install alongside another system", the custom partition
layout is applied to the space freed by resizing the selected partition.

This patches add new methods to both PartitionLayout and
PartitionCoreModule classes which apply the partition layout to the
available drive space.
In addition, the partition creation code from PartitioinActions is
removed to call the newly created methods instead, thus applying the
custom partition layout when the "Erase whole disk" and "Replace
partition" choices are selected.

As we move some of the partition creation code away from
PartitionActions, we will need the bytesToSectors function. Rather than
copying it, we export it in the PartitionActions namespace, so that
other classes can use it.

In order to keep the partition layout during calamares' execution, we
add a PartitionLayout object instance to PartitionCoreModule. This class
will therefore be used to initialize the PartitionLayout object and
interact with it thoughout the program's execution.
When no partition layout is present in the config file, we initialize
the layout with a single ext4 partition mounted on '/', as it was
previously done.

In order to use a custom partition layout in the partition module, we
need to write this layout in the module's config file, and store it into
a dedicated object.
As it doesn't look appropriate to extend an existing class with layout
information, we create a new PartitionLayout class, which will be used
to parse the layout from the config file and keep it in memory.

- The noload option prevents journal re-play (so it's an extra-
strong read-only) but is only applicable to ext3 and ext4.
Check the FS type before mounting; other FS types don't
accept -o noload and will fail to mount.
- This only applies to legacy (non-EFI) BIOS systems, and
adds the FlagBoot to whatever is already set for the root
filesystem, and only when autopartitioning the device.

FIXES: #1046CLOSES: #1049
Suggested by aliveafter1000: having a default value, and then
filling in the default in one place it is used and not others,
is weird. Instead of dropping the one use, remove the default
value: partition flags are important enough to be explicit.
- Handle legacy and modern config, mixed-configs,
- Translate strings to enum values,
- Default and warn as appropriate.
- Doesn't **do** anything with the config, though.
- Running lsblk and mount for debugging purposes can be
skipped when the debugging is going to be suppressed anyway.
This will speed things up just a little for regular users.
- While winnowing devices, the zram and nullptr cases
were mixed together; split them, for the sake of
logging more accurately.
- While here, fix up some coding-style issues.
- Q_ASSERT doesn't work in constexpr functions because it's not
- May as well calculate bytes at compile-time, no need to give
the runaround via number-of-MiB
- The choice of swap needs to be handled in more places,
so make the enum available in the partition module core instead
of just inside the choice page.
- Q_ASSERT doesn't work in constexpr functions because it's not
- May as well calculate bytes at compile-time, no need to give

This fixes the crash by calling the model-reset first, then
refreshing. Previously, the destructors that do the work
were still being called in the wrong order.
FIXES#1019
- The ResetHelper only finalized changes to the module on
destruction, but calls to refresh() assumed it was already
done. This leads to crashes when refresh() uses an intermediate
state of the model.
Introduce extra helpers, and rename refresh() to avoid calling the
old implementation from any code. The new helper just creates and
destroys a ResetHelper, before creating and destroying an object
that calls the new refreshAfterModelChange().
FIXES#1019
ESP == boot. at best this is duplicated information, at worst kpmcore may
implode if you try to set a boot flag since that is technically an MBR
type flag and means nothing within the context of GPT where ESP is the flag
to set.
having ESP as active flag AND then trying to set ESP means nothing is
set since kpmcore will think ESP is already set (it is listed as active
after all). this ultimately meant that nothing was set since there was
no delta between the requested flags and the already active flags.
- Reported by Bill Auger (I think), a 15GiB disk wouldn't hold
a 8.9GiB root plus 4GiB swap -- due to 10% overprovisioning
of swap, plus the 2.1GiB fudge factor.
- Calculating first free sector had an off-by-one so that
partitioning would start at 2049.
- EFI boot partition grew 1 sector larger than desired.
- While here, align everything to 1MiB boundaries as well.
FIXES#1008
Untangle the shortcuts; Create and Cancel had an overlap.
Skip 'r' (Revert all changes) and 'e' (Edit) and settle on
'a' (which might also mean "Add").
FIXES#977
- If there is a partition already (newly) created, then pass that
to the dialog so that it can use the setings previously applied
(e.g. mount point and flags).
- This avoids the case where you create or format a partition,
then click on it again to edit it and the previous settings are lost.
- Setup the lsit of flags consistently, by providing the available
and to-be-checked flags.
- In CreatePartitionDialog, assume that ~0 is all the flags.
This file is full of helper functions for the partition-editing
dialogs. At first it was just mount-point helper functions,
but there is other functionality that can be refactored.
- If we're changing the flags to enable EFI boot, then that's
enough to satisfy the (future) EFI bootability check.
This is for issue #622 as well. Fixes#884.
- Use the desired (future) flags, if set, to initialize the
flags checkboxes. If there are no future flags set, this
returns active flags as before.
- This fixes the situation where editing a partition, changing
flags, then editing it *again* re-starts with the original
flags instead of the modified flags.
- PartitionInfo maintains information on "what is desired" for
a given Partition. Now we can set desired flags, alongside
the flags already supported by Partition (where activeFlags()
gives you the flags currently set on that partition).
- Avoids case where you edit a partition with a mountpoint
set; previously, calling setText() would update the text
but leave the selected index unchanged (usually 0), so that
later calling selectedMountPoint() would return empty.
- Move to one place which handles the standard mount points
- While here, introduce explicit "(no mount point)" string
into the combo box. This is prep-work for issue #951.
