Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 9d8f8d55ed sysinstall: don't ask whether to erase a disk that contains no partitions
When the target disk carried no partitions, the installer still asked:

    Please type 'keep' to install the OS in addition to what the disk
    already contains, or 'erase' to erase all data on the disk:

The question is meaningless in that case: there's nothing on the disk
worth preserving, and both answers lead to the same result.

Modify fsystemd-repart to report in the dry-run reply of
io.systemd.Repart.Run() the number of partitions currently on the disk.
The field is only included if the existing partition table was actually
read, i.e. in the 'refuse' and 'allow' empty modes, and omitted
otherwise.

Make systemd-sysinstall skip the erase question if the reply positively
indicates that there are no partitions, proceeding as if 'keep' was
selected.
