Hi Rich,

This is rebase of v5 series. Meanwhile, I found a bug when shrinking
partitions, and the fix is incuded in this version (patch 2).

Regards,
Hu

changes to v4:
  1. add support to resize extended partition (--resize or --expand extended partition)
  2. fix the problem of deficit of 512 bytes when expanding a logical partition
     (this problem can be reproduced in v4 by only expanding a logical partition, without resizing any other partitions)
  3. update the test script to support logical partitions and extended partition

changes to v3:
  1. merge patch 1 and patch 3 in v3
  2. let mbr_part_type return 'primary' for GPT partitions
  3. add test for resizing logical partitions
  4. fix extending the extended partition (yet). see patch 7.

changes to v2:
  1. remove p_part_num
  2. remove filter_parts
  3. name the function calculate_target_partitions
  4. remove the code to restart guest introduced in v2

changes to v1:
  1. spit the patches so it's easier to review
  2. fix the parted error caused by unaligned logical partitions
  3. extend the content of logical partitions
  4. refactor to make logical partitions a seperate list



Hu Tao (4):
  resize: add partition type LogicalPartition
  resize: add support to resize logical partitions
  resize: support resize extended partition
  resize: test: add support for resizing extended and logical partitions
