Extend the partition type field so that it supports other values. e.g. root, var, etc. These new values map to well-known partition type UUIDs. In addition, allow the user to specify a UUID string in the type field in case we don't yet have a friendly name for that UUID.

Also, add check to ensure the ESP is mounted at /boot/efi.

Extend the partition `type` field so that it supports other values.
e.g. `root`, `var`, etc. These new values map to well-known partition
type UUIDs. In addition, allow the user to specify a UUID string in the
`type` field in case we don't yet have a friendly name for that UUID.

Also, add check to ensure the ESP is mounted at `/boot/efi`.

nit: "A partition UUID string" -- just think it would make it more clear
