Partition scheme can be forced by setting MENDER_PARTITION_SCHEME="gpt" or MENDER_PARTITION_SCHEME="dos", otherwise it will use the scheme from the input image.

With GPT there should be a backup partition table at the end of the disk. Before this change, mender-convert-package creates the output image file, writes the partition table, and when it writes the first partition data the file is truncated and the backup partition table is gone.
This change should not cause any worse performance, it leaves the backup partition table when using GPT partition scheme, and makes troubleshooting easier when looking at the partition table of the output diskimage.
Also worth noting, if the output diskimage is written to a disk that is larger than the diskimage, the backup partition table will end up in the wrong place. This can be fixed by running 'sgdisk -e <device>'. The device will still boot without the backup partition table, but it would be good to either document this or make it automatic as part of any "first boot" disk/partition operations.

The publishing variables have no prefix, and the tmp storage ones have
a TMP_STORAGE prefix, so adapt to that.

This adds color to the warning, error, and fatal log messages, by changing the
colour codes in the terminal for the error level in the log message. This way
warning and errors stick out more from the regular messages, and helps identify
errors.

This commit adds a systemd script which on boot runs parted to fill the
remaining space on the memory card into the data partition.

This extends the current functionality of the platform_ function
functionality into using hooks, so that each modification step can be called
from multiple configuration files.
The valid hooks are:
* PLATFORM_MODIFY_HOOKS
* PLATFORM_PACKAGE_HOOKS
* USER_LOCAL_MODIFY_HOOKS
and can be appended to as a regular bash array.

This image is old enough to have a U-Boot version from before the boot
problems in MEN-2404 were introduced (>= v2018.09). At the time of
writing, no image has been released which has a U-Boot from after the
problem was fixed (> v2019.07), but we expect it will eventually be
released, and then we can bump to that version.

This change retains the name of the converted input image, and adds the device
type and a mender suffix, so that the user can both recognize the converted
image, and is aware of what the device the converted image supports.

This is a bit unfortunate, but our converted image does not work for
all of them, like the original.

2.04 does not work on Beaglebone Black.

This is important so that the bootloader (U-Boot) can use the DTB
files when chainloading GRUB via UEFI. The logic for doing this is
already present in `distro_bootcmd`, but because we were not placing
the DTB files in the correct folder, this part was skipped.
Changelog: Fix certain kernels hanging on boot. In particular, recent
versions of Debian for Beaglebone was affected, but several other
boards using UEFI may also have been affected.

The previous 4GB size gave an aprox 1.5GB rootfs, which was not enough
to run a full `apt-get update && apt-upgrade` after flashing.

This is done to aling with the internal naming conventions we are using when
testing other images of the same type, which has the `.sdimg` naming extension
in our Yocto setup.
