* Improve built-in gptsync implementation (LP: #757201):
- Only the first partition may start at sector 1; don't modify later
partitions that way. This avoids overlap.
- If no protective partition at all is found, place at the start of the
MBR a tiny fake protective partition, covering the space from sector 1
to the start of the first real partition. Partitions that follow are
moved up by one, so that the hybrid MBR only includes three real
partitions.
