Bug#745717: di-utils: fetch-url runs mountmedia without cleaning up; blocks partitioner preseeding



This bug also affects the hd-media installer.

With hd-media installer, iso-scan will try mount each partition to find isos with the following command:

mount -t auto -o ro $device /hd-media

Since the partition contains preseed file, which very likely contains the iso file, is mounted, this mount will fail, and iso-scan will eventually fail to find the iso file.

The same problem also exists in /usr/lib/fetch-url/floppy, which also mount partitions without umount.

I personally modified fetch-url/file and fetch-url/floppy, added `umount /media || true` before every return path, then the installer works incorrectly.
