[SETUPLIB][USETUP] Introduce a bootloader installation helper (#7310)
CORE-13525

This is done so that the caller doesn't need to know details
about particular architecture specifics, like VBR, MBR etc.

Extra checks and specific handling is also performed for supporting
bootloader installation on removable media:
- verify whether the media is a floppy or some other removable media,
- depending on which, a suitable file system is chosen,
- and if the media is not a floppy, do the supplemental partition
  verifications to determine whether the media is a "super-floppy"
  (in the partitioning sense).

[USETUP][SETUPLIB] Continue hiding the FAT32 format in the format list, but take it into account anyway later on.
The formatter will select it anyway as soon as the partition size
permits it. We make it available internally however so as to "emulate"
FMIFS functionality.

Now rely on the partition filesystem for InstallVBRToPartition() instead
of the unreliable and deprecated partition type.

[USETUP][SETUPLIB] Move the bootsup.c code into the setuplib, and perform the necessary adjustments.
Move the bootsup.c code into the setuplib, as the code is generic
enough to be used by both USETUP and the 1st-stage GUI installer.
