installer: Add MSDOS disk label support on UEFI systems.
Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/47889>. * gnu/installer/parted.scm (esp-partition?): Remove the MSDOS check. (auto-partition!): On MSDOS disks, check if an ESP partition is present. If that's the case, do not remove it. Otherwise, if UEFI is supported, create one.
