add a partition to the device
This command adds a partition to device. If there is no partition table on the device, call
part_init first.
The prlogex parameter is the type of partition. Normally you should pass p or primary here, but MBR
partition tables also support l (or logical) and e (or extended) partition types.
startsect and endsect are the start and end of the partition in *sectors*. endsect may be negative,
which means it counts backwards from the end of the disk (@-1 is the last sector).
Creating a partition which covers the whole disk is not so easy. Use part_disk to do that.
