Previously, end block was inconsistent. GUIDPartitionTable treated
end block as an inclusive bound, while MBRPartitionTable and
EBRPartitionTable treated end block as an exclusive bound.
Now all three treat end block as an inclusive upper bound.
This adds a new application PartitionEditor which will eventually be
used to create and edit partition tables. Since LibPartition does not
know how to write partition tables yet, it is currently read-only.
Devices are discovered by scanning /dev for block device files.
Since block devices are chmod 600, PartitionEditor be must run as root.
By default Serenity uses the entire disk for the ext2 filesystem
without a partition table. This isn't useful for testing as the
partition list for the default disk will be empty. To test properly,
I created a few disk images using various partitioning schemes
(MBR, EBR, and GPT) and attached them using the following command:
export SERENITY_EXTRA_QEMU_ARGS="
-drive file=/path/to/mbr.img,format=raw,index=1,media=disk
-drive file=/path/to/ebr.img,format=raw,index=2,media=disk
-drive file=/path/to/gpt.img,format=raw,index=3,media=disk"
