The order of the partitions is important, it needs to be preserved.
If using a simple dict, this is not happening. As a consequence,
checks like 'primary partition being first' are failing because the
dictionary sorts the partitions randomly.
Switched to OrderedDict solved the problem, as it preserves the
ordering it gets from the yaml blob.

Now that the main partitioning refactor patch is merged, there is
a small relict of handling partitions still in the disk-image-create
main.
This patch moves the functionality from disk-image-create to the
block-device/partitioning module: it is mostly a rewrite of the
original bash code in python.

During the creation of a disk image (e.g. for a VM), there is the need
to create, setup, configure and afterwards detach some kind of storage
where the newly installed OS can be copied to or directly installed
in.
This patch implements partitioning handling.
