[Bug 1422919] [NEW] Ephemeral device on G5 instances is incorrect due to GPT partition tables

[Ben Howard]

Public bug reported:

In the larger G-Series VM sizes (G4 and G5) we have SSD-backed ephemeral
disks that are larger than 2TB, and so they look a little different;
namely they now use a GPT partition table and they also have two
partitions:

------------------------------------------------------------------
Model: Msft Virtual Disk (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdb: 6597GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: gpt Disk
Flags:

Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
 1 17.4kB 134MB 134MB Microsoft reserved partition msftres
 2 135MB 6597GB 6597GB ntfs Basic data partition
------------------------------------------------------------------
