Replace usage of gdisk with sfdisk #2804

@Conan-Kudo

Description

@Conan-Kudo

We currently use gdisk for GPT disks due to a legacy in which GPT was only supported by gdisk, but fdisk and sfdisk from util-linux has supported GPT in addition to MBR since 2013 with util-linux 2.23. We no longer support any distribution that doesn't have a version of fdisk that doesn't support GPT, so let's move to sfdisk and drop the gdisk/gptfdisk dependency.
