partman - s390 support



Hi folks

Disclaimer: I don't do a deeper look into partman so this may already
work.

This features will be needed by a possible s390 support in partman:
- IBM disklabels (Sven Luther offered to take a look on it) for internal
  storage, some other partition type for the FC storage.
- Proper recognition of the sector size (see #236325).
- The block size of ext2/ext3 needs to be >= sector size, otherwise the
  kernel will refuse to use them. This may apply to other FS as well.
- It should be possible to force the availability of a /boot mountpoint
  under some conditions (it is currently not possible to have a
  bootkernel on a FC disc, but root may on such a device)
