Title:
  debian-installer: creation of volume group (LVM) fails if hostname
  corresponds with an existing device name

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Auto LVM recipe fails to install, if hostname matches one of
  existing volume group names or devices under /dev/

  [Test Case]

   * Do not preseed default VG name & specify a hostname as clashing
  with a device under /dev/, e.g. "port". Before the installation fails,
  now "port-vg" VG name is used.

   * Specify a clashing default VG name, e.g. port. Before the
  installation fails, now a message appears that "This name is in use
  already" and asks to select a different one.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Some systems may expect default VG group name to match the hostname
  exactly. In those cases "partman-auto-lvm/new_vg_name" should be
  preseeded explicitly to an expected value.
