Reworked the way partition formatting works. As well as added some flags to the partition if it's locked/unlocked for partitioning. By defaults partitions will now be in a locked state - prohibiting formatting unless set or overridden in the formatting call. This allows us to selectively format partitions individually later on. There's also a target_mountpoint that is the desired relative mount point inside a installation. This can be pre-pended with the installation base directory during mount. These changes also function as indicators for the installation (and guided installation) for which partitions to use and/or wipe. If an entire drive is selected for wiping, these changes will have no affect in the decision making as all partitions will be new and have formatable set to true.
