This patch introduces a new "groups" table in the super partition
metadata. Each entry denotes a named partition group with a maximum
size. All partitions now belong to a group, and the total size of
partitions in a group must not exceed its maximum size. This is enforced
by MetadataBuilder.
There is also a "default" group with no size restriction. This is used
for one-off partitions that aren't restricted by updates, for example,
the scratch partition for overlayfs, or partitions created through
fastbootd.

This change enables reading metadata images from memory, for situations
where using file descriptors is not practical (such as fastbootd flash).

This is in preparation for "fastboot flash super", where we want to
verify the validity of a super image before writing it. To do so, we
need to parse the image from the download buffer, and it is useful to do
this from memory rather than a file descriptor.

Callers of ParseMetadata must manually copy geometry to the final
LpMetadata structure, which is error-prone. Instead, force callers to
pass geometry to ParseMetadata to ensure it is always propagated.

This is in preparation for adding sparse image support, to avoid
cluttering the more critical reading and writing logic.

This changes reader.h and writer.h to be private includes. A new liblp.h
header now contains the public API surface of those two files, as well
as some miscellanious functions previously in metadata_format.h.

If UpdatePartitionTable is interrupted while writing metadata, the next
update becomes much more risky, as only one valid copy may exist. If
that subsequent update is interrupted, all metadata copies may be
corrupt.
To alleviate this, we now synchronize both metadata copies before each
update. If the backup copy is corrupted, we replace it with the primary
copy, and vice versa. Similarly if the primary and backup metadata do
not match, we sync the backup to contain the same data as the primary.
If for some reason this synchronization process fails, we do not proceed
to write a new partition table.

Block devices in the Linux kernel have a "minimum I/O request" size. The
minimum size is usually acquired by the block driver and can change
from device to device. When stacking devices (such as with
device-mapper), the kernel goes through great lengths to make sure this
alignment is respected for optimal I/O. In device-mapper's case,
misalignment can lead to kernel warnings and performance issues.
While this is unlikely to matter with a few targets, it could become
problematic on a large number of targets, and so we would prefer to
align all partition extents to the minimum I/O size.
We now support two new properties in the partition table geometry: an
"alignment", which is the minimum I/O size, and an "alignment offset",
which is an offset that when applied to sector 0, causes the sector to
be properly aligned within its parent device (for example, if a
physical partition is misaligned). All partition extents now begin on a
sector that respects this alignment.
One major caveat is that it is difficult for the initial partition table
to have the correct alignment without build system and/or flash tool
support. To accomodate this, all alignment is optional, and the lpmake
tool will support a default alignment of 1MiB as a failsafe.

These tests check that various aspects of liblp's on-disk management
are functioning as intended. This checks redundancy, metadata slot
management, and metadata update and readback.

This library has methods to build, read, and modify logical partition tables
based on device-mapper targets. Targets currently supported are
dm-linear and dm-zero.
Note: this is a revert of a revert, with changes to fix Mac build
bustage.
