Bug Description
We use sgdisk and sfdisk to manipulate partitions, but these tools have several known limitations.
* We can't set offset=0 for a non mbr-type partition.
* We can't name change partition names for mbr-schema partitions
* We can't create partitions with alignments other than 1MiB (see LP: #1621151)
These are now fairly significant blockers for moving forward with ubuntu-image.

I'm unmilestoning this issue from 0.12 since we won't fix/eliminate sgdisk/sfdisk for this release.
