partition: allow to reparse a partition table
The partition table of a block device may change when it is written to.
Allow to reparse the partition table when this happens.
This is easy when none of the partitions is opened, in that case just
remove the old partitions and call parse_partition_table() again.
When a partition is opened (including mounted) we can't remove it. In
that case continue with the old partition table and print a warning.
