Add the following options to the installer:

  • Delete arbitrary partitions (expert mode)
  • Uninstall Asahi by removing the stub partition, the corresponding ESP, and (optionally) the Linux partitions directly following it
  • Grow an APFS container to use the free space after it.

Implements #83.

Add an expert menu option that allows deleting partitions.
Any partition can be deleted, except:
 - The partition containing the APFS volume group of the booted OS
 - APFS recovery partitions.

This option detects Linux installs (identified by an APFS volume group with
m1n1) and offers to delete by removing their associated partitions, namely:
 - The partition containing the volume group. The tool will refuse to operate
   if multiple OSes are installed on the partition.
 - The ESP referenced by the m1n1 installation
 - Optionally, all Linux partitions directly following the ESP. This is not
   guaranteed to be accurate but should work for most typical Linux installs.

This allows resizing partitions so they can use the free space located after
them.
