[Bug 1873723] [NEW] curtin ignores uuid on a partition

Public bug reported:

Curtin's block device schema and some examples (but not the
documentation) put a 'uuid' on 'type': 'partition' actions. But nothing
reads this value and does anything with it -- partitions end up with
autogenerated UUIDs (I'm also not sure what setting this value _should_
do with an msdos partition table -- but for a gpt it's clear).
