Bug #2017296 “automatically added /boot/efi partition can exceed…” : Bugs : subiquity

Steps to reproduce
——————

* Have a disk with a DOS partition table and 3 existing primary partitions.
* Run the desktop installer under UEFI and navigate to manual partitioning
* Create a new partition and mount it at /

This will result in a crash and the logs will show:
> Exception: Exceeded number of available partitions

Adding the rootfs partition will actually create two partitions:
* a partition mounted at /
* a partition mounted at /boot/efi

There is enough room for one more primary partition, but not 2.
