[Bug 978032] [NEW] partitioning step doesn't have "discard" as a selectable mount option

[Alan Pope]

Public bug reported:

Doing a clean install of Ubuntu server on a machine with an SSD. I am
led to believe that in my fstab I should add the mount option "discard"
to enable trim support. During the partitioning step I manually
configured my partitions and selected "mount options" but 'discard' was
not listed. I will now have to manually edit my fstab to add this in.
Would it not be prudent to have this as a selectable option in d-i for
server/alternate images?
