fa01152676 Rototilled fdisk that supports:
- editing of the extended partition list
- user friendly default start/size for new partitions
- partition start/size input in sectors, cylinders or MB
- bootsel menu names configured with paritition bounds
- partition update loop asks used which partition to change
  (instead of asking about each partition in turn).
- detection (and erroring) of overlapped partitions.
- automatic installation of correct mbr_xxx code (after prompting user)

fe1cad9aa9 Cross-link fdisk(8), mbr(8), and mbrlabel(8) in the SEE ALSO sections,
as suggested in PR 14288.  Also add a little white space to mbr(8) to
make it a little more readable.

a67eb3719f list the options in a specific options list (as per the `traditional'
man page). i find this much easier to read than option descriptions
scattered amongst paragraphs of text.

48c1c25ba5 Make the bootselector configurable by fdisk. Add a -B flag to this
effect (i386 only of course). Also change one branch in the
bootselector code to an explicit 16 bit one, and check both
the boot menu and partition tables to see if the partition
requested by the user should be booted. This check just in case,
should the bootselector menu and partition table get out of sync
somehow. (mmm, bytesqueezing)

1b063875bf Upgrade for non-interactive use. Interactive use is nearly unchanged.
-i no longer implies -u, -i now does not use the entire first track
because some BIOSes refuse to boot from a partition in the first track.
-s renamed to -S, new -s for non-interactive setting of a partition's
id, offset and size.  Updated documentation to match.
