setFlags function now takes additional argument const Partition& partition.
This allows us to completely remove CoreBackendPartition class.
Remove getPartitionBySector and getExtendedPartitions.
These functions were designed around libparted API and are not very convenient
with other backends.
Now it's the backend's responsibility to find LVM devices.
All LVM scanning code was moved into LvmDevice::scanSystemLVM helper,
so that it is very easy to plug LVM into backend.
LVM devices are now intentionally not detected in Dummy Backend.
For reading UDF label and UUID is needed blkid >= 2.30. For creating new
UDF filesystem is needed mkudffs binary from the udftools package.
When creating new UDF fileystem, revision 2.01 for hard disk media is used.
Therefore it is not possible to use it for optical (or other) medias.
Problems:
* Check for min and max capacity is incorrect as it depends on logical
(sector) size of the disk.
* Check for max label length is incorrect too as it depends on characters
itself in label.
* Specifying label is not working yet as FileSystem::create() does not get
label parameter.
* UDF filesystem should be used on unpartitioned disk, without MBR or GPT
and spanning whole disk, but KDE Partition Manager does not support it.
* When MBR is used, MBR partition id should be 0x07, but currently it is
incorrect 0x83. See: https://serverfault.com/a/829172 (same for GPT)
Summary:
- mark deviceNode const
- copy it as deviceName
- mutate deviceName by removing `/dev/`
- use the new deviceName for the read-only check
this makes sure we emit the unmodified deviceNode (e.g. /dev/vda) rather
than the name (e.g. vda). unbreaks for example calamares which doesn't
know what to do with "vda".
CCBUG: 378607
Test Plan:
- without fix clamares fails to list devices
- with the fix calamares lists devices

The previous way relied on kernel device numbers but this gets ugly, especially
in cases when device number is not assigned such as virtio disks.
