Title:
  "Ready to install" screen shows "Used for" instead of "Formatted as"
  for partitions marked for formatting

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On the final screen of the Ubuntu 25.04 installer ("Ready to
  install"), the summary incorrectly displays the label "Used for" for
  partitions that have been marked for formatting in the manual
  partitioning step. This can be misleading, as it does not clearly
  indicate which partitions will be formatted. The expected behavior is
  for the summary to show "Formatted as" or similar, to make it explicit
  which partitions will be erased and with what file system.

  **Steps to Reproduce:**

  1. Launch the Ubuntu 25.04 installer.
  2. Proceed through the steps until the partitioning screen.
  3. Select "Manual partitioning."
  4. Create or edit partitions and mark some of them to be formatted.
  5. Continue to the "Ready to install" summary screen.

  **Expected Result:**

  Partitions marked for formatting should be clearly labeled, e.g.,
  "Formatted as ext4."

  **Actual Result:**

  Partitions are labeled as "Used for," which does not indicate that
  they will be formatted.

  **Impact:**

  This may cause confusion or unintended data loss, as users might not
  realize which partitions are going to be formatted.

  **Version:** Ubuntu 25.04 installer (daily build 20250411 -
  11/04/2025)
