[PATCH parted 6/7] libparted: add ped_disk_get_partition_alignment() function

[Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This functions get the aligment needed for partition boundaries on this disk.
The returned alignment describes the aligment for the start sector of the
partition, for all disklabel types which require alignment, except Sun
disklabels, the end sector must be aligned too. To get the end sector
aligment decrease the PedAlignment offset by 1.
