Cache results from querying all LVM2 PVs in one go to minimise the
number of times lvm commands are executed. Take inspiration from
caching performed by FS_Info and Proc_Partitions_Info.
Bug #160787 - lvm support
Newly created LVM2 PVs, before being added to a Volume Group, report
free space equal to the partition size. Allow free space to equal
partition size.
# parted /dev/sda10 unit B print
Error: /dev/sda10: unrecognised disk label

Add minimal support for just reporting the space usage of LVM2 PVs.
Accept libparted / blkid detection of LVM2 PVs first, falling back on
GParted's specific detection code otherwise. Maintain LVM not supported
warning message.
Bug #160787 - lvm support
This is the first step of adding support for just LVM2 Phyiscal Volumes,
a subset of full LVM2 support.
Make it clear that it is only LVM2 PVs being treated like a file system.
Bug #160787 - lvm support
Moving the start sector of an extended partition should not adversely
affect booting an operating system because an extended partition is
only a container for logical partitions.
Add the ability to set a new random UUID on file systems that provide
the appropriate tools to perform this action.
Update the help manual to include this new functionality. Also add
reference links to "setting a partition label" and "changing a
partition UUID" in the "copying and pasting a partition" section.
This patch does not include setting the UUID on an NTFS file system.

There is a lot of commonality and code repetition for resizing of file
systems which can only be resized while mounted. Resizing of btrfs, jfs
and xfs all follow the pattern: mkdir, mount, resize, umount and rmdir.
Copying an xfs file system also uses a similar pattern, but for the
source and destination xfs file systems simultaneously.
Add three helper functions to the FileSystem class which implement
common tasks, allowing mounted file system resizing to be implemented
more simply.
Also add a function to the Utils class which checks whether the kernel
supports a file system. It handles the case of non-loaded modules,
which currently leads to reporting the growing of jfs and xfs as
unsupported.
We used to just log libparted exceptions without handling them. This patch
changes the exception handler to display a modal dialog box and return the
chosen action to libparted.
The call to "blkid -c /dev/null" on Precise Pangolin Alpha 1 takes
exceedingly long. This occurs when the BIOS is incorrectly set to
indicate a floppy drive is present when none is physically installed.
Use cached blkid results instead.

higher for nilfs2 file system detection.
Requires nilfs-utils for nilfs2 file system support.
