Subject: parted: mkpart: set a swap flag if available
References: fate#314888, bsc#1044536
Patch-mainline: no, upstream wants to drop the swap flag

libparted can't differentiate if ped_partition_set_system() is
called from mkpart context or when reading from disk. This makes
it hard to handle the linux-swap partition type properly.

So check in do_mkpart() if a swap flag is available and only set it
there if the selected FS type name starts with "linux-swap".
