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.

This basically means we talk about localization in the respective
localized variant. e.g. "German (Germany)" ➡ "Deutsch (Deutschland)".
If geoip lookup failed or isn't configured for whatever reason it's a
stretch to expect the user to know english enough to find their own
language. Preferring the localized strings resolves this issue.
Additionally this happens to bypass #712 respectively
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-34287
as the native names are properly spelled. So, as long as Qt has localized
names the names will also be properly spelled.
- If a key is missing from mount.conf, don't raise KeyError
- If both keys are missing, suggest that mount.conf might
be missing instead (a consequence of INSTALL_CONFIG=OFF, for
instance).
- Simplify code a bit.
- Don't bother returning None explicitly.
- for remove and localInstall, add support for pre- and post-
scripts like there already was for install.
This feels like there's code duplication going on, but I haven't
thought of an elegant way to distinguish the available operations
so that I can pass around functions instead.
- 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.
