The kickstart reference documents "partition" as a synonym for "part".
wic does not accept it: its parser registers only part, bootloader and
include, so a .wks line beginning "partition" fails with an
invalid-choice error.

The synonym was real while wic used a bundled pykickstart, whose command
table mapped both spellings to one handler. Replacing that with a parser
carrying only the options wic uses kept "part" alone, and the manual was
not updated to match.
