system initialize() hooks. It's often the only info about the
partition one needs and thus locking the partition just to get it is
no longer necessary.
* intel partitioning system:
- Removed passing around block sizes. We require 512 byte sectors
anyway. In fact using the parent partition's block size was even
wrong.
- Simplified writing the partition map sector.
- Simplified and corrected the partition map initialization.
- We don't fail identifying a partition anymore, if the partition map
contains no partitions. We would never identify a freshly
initialized partition map before.
- Made pm_identify() more intelligent: It determines the priority to
return depending on whether the partition is the device itself and
whether we have recognized child partitions.

content name are supported.
* Added file_system_module_info::flags (analogously to
partition_module_info::flags) which indicate which disk device
features the FS supports.
* Replaced the
file_system_module_info/partition_module_info::supports_*()
hooks by a get_supported_operations() hook and for partitioning
systems additionally a get_supported_child_operations() hook.
* Updated file and partitioning systems accordingly.
* Updated fs_shell accordingly.
* Updated the DDM accordingly. The syscall interface remains unchanged,
though.
* _user_supports_initializing_partition() also checks whether the parent
partitioning system is content now.

VFS's interface, so that a file system only has to implement one interface.
As a side effect, the automatic file system detection may now work (not yet
tested, though).

to the module interfaces. So the disk system will be informed, when a
shadow partition has changed and it is allowed to do necessary
adjustions (e.g. adjusting the cookie, the parameters, or on
partitioning system initialization even creating special child
partitions (apple partitioning system)).
* Added `int32 *index' parameter to ValidateCreateChild(). So the
partitioning system can report at which index the new child shall be
inserted.
