Use the device's logical sector size throughout rather than
PED_SECTOR_SIZE_DEFAULT (LP: #1065281).

* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
  - Ubiquity integration: If PARTMAN_NO_COMMIT is set, then exit rather
    than running commit.d and finish.d scripts; add a partman-commit
    script; dump extra information to /var/lib/partman/snoop if
    PARTMAN_SNOOP is set; check for per-menu 'no_show_choices' file in
    ask_user and don't reshow the menu if it exists.
  - Don't skip over dmraid devices if the user chooses not to activate
    them.
  - If the only thing mounted on a disk is the installation medium and it
    uses more or less the whole disk, then silently exclude that disk; if
    the installation medium is mounted but doesn't use the whole disk,
    issue a warning that partitioning may be difficult; if anything else
    is mounted, offer to unmount it. partman/filter_mounted=false disables
    this.

Be more careful about printing translated visuals, in case a translation
starts with "-" (which the zh_TW translation of "FREE SPACE" does).

  - Handle /dev/zram* the same way as /dev/ramzswap* (exclude from
    partitioning, and don't disable swap devices there).
* Revert to -Os on powerpc. Whatever toolchain bug was suspected here may
  well have gone away, and if it's still present then we should find out
  what it is and get it fixed.
