only allow GPT boot flag on EFI System partition (#746895)
From: "Brian C. Lane" <bcl@redhat.com>
When parted sets the boot flag on a GPT labeled disk's partition it
sets the EFI System GUID type. This results in BIOS systems' boot
partition having the wrong GUID type, and EFI systems having multiple
EFI System partitions.
