[Bug 1062737] Re: hybrid images do not include a valid GPT

I've built a test image now using the cherry-picked patch from 1.2.5,
and confirmed that the -partition_offset option now happily coexists
with -isohybrid-gpt-basdat in all of my testing (USB boot on real UEFI
hardware; USB and CD boot in BIOS VM; USB boot in UEFI VM).  So that
seems to be a suitable fix.

However, as the resultant image still appears to not have a valid MBR
partition table, there doesn't seem to be any advantage to adding this
option back to our builds for 12.10.  So I think we'll leave it as is
with -partition_offset 16 disabled for now.
