The problem with partconf may be solved by RESETting partconf/partitions
when its value is Abort.

Instead of adding a new command, we may add an optional ABORT argument to
the STOP command to tell cdebconf not to store seen questions.
But I am quite certain that this whole stuff is a bad idea, how to abort
and thus go back to main-menu should be handled directly by cdebconf,
and not by config scripts.
