From: Pierre-Loup GOSSE <pierre-loup.gosse@smile.fr>

Currently, the content of the partition is filled by the filesystem
without leaving any unused free space. The --extra-space flag adds
extra space to the filesystem size, not to the partition.

Unused free space after the filesystem can be useful for some cases,
such as encrypting a partition at runtime. With --extra-part-space 32M,
we ensure that the last 32M of the partition is unused: this space does
not contain filesystem data and can store the LUKS2 header.

The implementation sets a difference between the partition and
filesystem size:
  - With --fixed-size, the extra part space is removed from the
    filesystem size.
  - Otherwise (with or without --size flags), the extra part space is
    added to the partition size.

Hi Pierre-Loup,

Thanks for the v2.

It looks like this is failing the selftests:
