* All the changes needed to make btrfs subvolumes work. It boils down to two points;
the handling of the addressing of subvolumes re. physical partitions, and the small changes at the bootloader level
* We added a new script only_hd for testing purposes. It only handles hadrd drive management
* restoring an escape hatch during subvolume processing
* hipercommented manage_btrfs_subvolumes
* Ready to be able to select and process options in subvolume mounting
* Separte nodatacow processing
* Solving a flake8 complain
* Use of bind names @ get_filesystem_type
* compress mount option bypass
* Preparations for encryption handling
* Compatibility to master version re. encrypted btrfs volumes
* Now we can create subvolumes and mountpoints inside an encrypted btrfs partition
* changes for entries file generation with systemd-bootctl
* flake8 corrections plus some comments

* Update partition.py
* Added sleep after partprobe
Added sleep after partprobe. Without this tools such as lsblk may be unable to retrieve certain properties of devices (such as partuuid).
* Add simple menu for better UX
* Add remove external dependency
* Fix harddisk return value on skip
* Table output for partitioning process
* Switch partitioning to simple menu
* fixup! Switch partitioning to simple menu
* Ignoring complexity and binary operator issues
Only in simple_menu.py
* Added license text to the MIT licensed file
* Added in versioning information
* Fixed some imports and removed the last generic_select() from user_interaction. Also fixed a revert/merged fork of ask_for_main_filesystem_format()
* Update color scheme to match Arch style better
* Use cyan as default cursor color
* Leave simple menu the same

* Added support for storing disk encryption keyfiles and add them to a keyslot.
* Added a luks2().add_key() function in order to inject a keyfile into a keyslot on a encrypted volume.
* Simplified 'missing encryption password' logic in Filesystem(). Added a call to luks2().add_key() after the root-password is set on the volume, to add the keyfile in slot 2
* Adding in password handling in luks2().add_key(). It's required to enter a previous passphrase to unlock the volume and add a new keyslot. Also simplified the handling of partition in Installer().mount_ordered_layout()
* Adding in encryption on all partitions except /boot when encryption is opted in
* Removed setting size on Partition() as it's a read only value. No idea how Partition().size = size hasn't caused an issue before. Removed size=X argument to Partition()
* Added a uniqueness to the loopdevice name. This should ensure that multiple encrypted volumes can be opened at the same time, except for Partition().detect_inner_filesystem() operations which can only happen one at a time since they share namespace. This should never be an issue since archinstall is single threaded and no concurrent operations can/should happen.
* Added partprobe() as part of disk/helpers.py, added a /dev/ -> UUID mapper function called convert_device_to_uuid(path). Added a luks2().crypttab() function that sets up a /etc/crypttab entry.
* Moved the responsability for telling archinstall to generate a keyfile from Filesystem() to user_interaction.py. This should in the future be a user-input based value, and not something the Filesystem() automatically dictates.
* Added a retry mechanism to luks2().encrypt() to avoid having to re-start the installation when a device simply wasn't up yet.
* Swapping UUID= lookup from loopdev to physdev.
* Moved convert_size_to_gb() into disk/helpers.py, Added a Partition().size property meta function. Using the .size value to check if /boot is too small which will raise an exception. The only drawback is that it's done post-formatting. This in order to catch scenarios where formatting isn't used.
* Changed /boot warning from 0.15GB to 0.25GB
* Changed the wording in the warning when /boot is too small.
* For fun, allow NTFS as a root filesystem type
Add ability to format a filesystem as NTFS
Try to force filesystem type
Fix FAT mounting
* Split out mount fs type method
* Handle rootfstype on non-GRUB bootloaders
* Add -Q to mkfs.ntfs command line for quick formatting
* I believe this will fix GRUB with NTFS root
* Remove the fsck hook if NTFS is used as the root partition
* Looks like the string is ntfs3 not ntfs so this logic wasn't running
* Simplified size definition in dict. Also changed from MiB to MB and GiB to GB on places where they were used, as BlockDevice().size now returns GB by default, so no math operations needed
* Appended the /boot offset to /root when specifying /home start.
* Added multiple `partprobe` calls and added a `.partprobe()` function on partitions, filesystem and blockdevice.
* Adding retry attempts to all UUID related operations tied to the boot process
* Tweaked logging for mounting and disk related operations
* Removed potential SysCall exception disruptor causing exceptions to go by unnoticed
* Increased the start position from 1MiB to 5MiB of /boot partition
* Optimized the GRUB installation & config code
* Improved Partition().uuid to never return None. Instead it will raise an exception if it can't get a PARTUUID within X retries with Y delay per attempt.
* Increased sleep timer for partition uuid retrieval, because even with a 3 second sleep it wasn't long enough even on fast devices.
* Make GRUB install to /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1.
* Added 10 retries for retreiving PARTUUID with a one second sleep. Instead of increasing the sleep simply add more retries until we find a good balance on slower disks.
