After a short talk off-list (thanks for the input!), this v2 takes a different
approach to not creating swap on ZFS systems by default:
* ZFS-installs now honor the minfree parameter, instead of honoring the swapsize
parameter
* Creation of a Swap ZVOL got completely removed from proxinstall
* Additionally the code now creates an 512M EFI partition, right after the
bios_boot partition (currently unused, but at least it causes less problems
should people want to change to UEFI booting after installing)
* This and the changed partition numbers are mostly to keep our layout
consistent with upstreams recommendations [0].
* I opted to keep the 8M partition 9 in the back, in the expectation, that it
might help when replacing a disk with one that is a "tiny" bit smaller.
