[Bug 1456443] [NEW] Skip eMMC device's boot0, boot1 and rpmb partitions

[Tsung-Han Lin]

Public bug reported:

During installation,
partman will scan all the available partitions.
However, with the eMMC device, especially with its /dev/mmcblk0rpmb partition,
a popup warning will show up to interrupt the whole installation process.
One has to manually press the 'Ignore' button to skip that and proceed the installation.
This seriously impacts some of OEM's auto installation requirements.
