[Bug 1572374] Re: partman should have a check script to warn if missing bios_grub partition

On a related note, if one specifically decides to _not_ create a
biosgrub partition and attempts to skip past the message asking you to
do so using "partman-partitioning/no_bootable_gpt_biosgrub" it just
locks up d-i.

Does anyone know if "partman-partitioning/no_bootable_gpt_biosgrub"
actually exists if it does anything? Searching online suggests this as
the workaround for preseed but I can't find any evidence of code
existing that actually makes this work.
