Zesty cloud images (bootable under both BIOS and UEFi) use non-monotonic GPT 
partitions /dev/sda1 /dev/sda14 /dev/sda15. This sure as heck confused 
virt-resize from libguestfs (who reordered them)


biosboot (was sda14) -> sda1

efi system (was sda14) -> sda2

rootfs (was sda1) -> sda3


The resulting image was not BIOS bootable as the GRUB prefix was wrong.OVMF 
could still boot the virt-resize'd image.


"RFE: virt-resize should be able to cope with crazy non-monotonic partition 
ordering used by Ubuntu"

What was the reason for the non-monotonic partition number selection?
