Gaël PORTAY 0529ebfb01 Add support for setting the specific GPT type
The GPT partition layout defines the type of the partition using a
UUID[1]. The type of the partition is not related to the underlying
filesystem but to its functionality: rootfs, home, var, swap, esp...

The UUID 4f68bce3-e8cd-4db1-96e7-fbcaf984b709 defines the root partition
(/), the UUID 933ac7e1-2eb4-4f13-b844-0e14e2aef915 defines the home
partition (/home), the UUID 4d21b016-b534-45c2-a9fb-5c16e091fd2d defines
the variable partition (/var)... Also, the UUIDs may vary depending on
the architecture (x86, x86_64, arm or aarch64).

KPMcore guesses the type depending on the underlying filesystem.

This commit enables the setting of a more specific GPT type if it is
specified through the method Partition::setType(). It falls back to the
previous guess type if the type is left unset.

Andrius Štikonas dfce039421 Only trigger udev events for block device subsystem.
Triggerring other subsystems is not necessary and occasionally
results in triggering unrelated bugs.

Switch to scoped name PartitionTable::Flag::
Deprecated old style enum PartitionTable::FlagName.
This will allow to switch to scoped enum class in some future version.

reappear with a different name.

Andrius Štikonas 80de99fc73 Move setFlags function from CoreBackendPartition to CoreBackendPartitionTable.
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.
