Ensure old metadata which lived in freespace (or did not get detected in
some other way) and thus did not get explictly destroyed by a destroyformat
action gets wiped when we create a new partition.
One example of this is: do autopart install, nuke part table, do auto part
install again, then we will hit pv creation issues because the old pv meta
data is still there.
