Used truncate instead of dd to create wic images for the
following reasons:
- dd doesn't preserve sparseness
- truncate syntax is much more clear
- dd requires additional calculations of the image size
in blocks
- the way dd was used in the code is not always correct.
In some cases it was writing one block to the file which makes
it not 100% sparse.

Added Partition.system_id attribute and initialized it
from parse result of wks option --system-id. It will be
used by the wic code below the call stack to set partition
system id.

We were creating the partition, mkswap'ing it, and then not dd'ing it into
place in the final image, as source_file wasn't being set for swap partitions.
This would result in a swap partition that couldn't be enabled on target until
mkswap was run.

Processing of this option was lost during recent change of
wks parsting. It was discovered during the work on booting
wic images under qemu. Now, when -use-uuid is fixed it's
possible to specify root partition by partition uuid.
This will be done in the following commit.

Copied partition-related API from kickstart/custom_commands/partition.py
to separate module in preparation for removal of all
pykickstart related code.
