Add an (expert) option to manually edit partitions, inspired by PR 57100.

Add support for FFSv2ea in the partition type menus (internally setting
fs version to 3 for this, where 2 is FFSv2 and 1 is FFSv1)

Add a menu option to set the file extension of the downloaded sets.
amd64 sets are .tar.xz and sysinst fails by default.

Slightly improved error handling when converion from one partition table
format to another is not lossless.

Add support for explicitly selecting "EFI system partition" as a partition
type.

When not invoked via some explicit "configure network" menu item,
auto-detect an already working network setup and offer to "just use" it
whenver we need connectivity.

Split the available disks (that may be partitioned) from the
preconfigured wedges (that can be install target, but can not be
partitioned). The latter are only usefull in special setups
and clobber the list of available disks for the usual setup cases.

Move DRM-driver firmware from base to its own set, gpufw

This set is only installed on amd64,i386,evbarm.
This set is installed on minimal installs and on install media, in
case someone needs it for basic driver functionality.

Comments:
Switched to a single MK tunable for it - that is probably unneeded.

An upcoming DRM update will include even fatter firmware, and we'd
like to minimize the impact of it.
