Some tests in the regressions directory deliberately print
error messages. As long as they still PASS, this is OK.
However these tests also printed some misleading messages
about what error to expect. Since error messages were slightly
different across distros, these messages were not accurate.
Therefore remove these messages, and replace with a general
message before all tests telling users not to worry about
errors from the tests as long as the tests don't fail.
Cherry picked from commit e7ee6eebed6ee3a5b56c0482ba2770e697d8febc
and rebased for stable branch.

guestfs_mount adds -o sync implicitly. This causes a very large
performance problem for write-intensive programs (eg. virt-v2v).
Document this as a "gotcha".
Change the tests, guestfish, Sys::Guestfs::Lib, guestmount to use
mount-options instead.
(Note that this gotcha does not affect mount-ro).
The source of the performance problem was first identified by
Matthew Booth.

This commit introduces a generic partition creation interface
which should be future-proof and extensible, and partially
replaces the old sfdisk-based interface.
The implementation is based on parted but is hopefully not too
dependent on the particulars of parted.
The following new calls are introduced:
guestfs_part_init:
Initialize a disk with a partition table. Unlike the sfdisk-
based interface, we also support GPT and other partition
types, which is essential to scale to devices larger than 2TB.
guestfs_part_add: Add a partition to an existing disk.
guestfs_part_disk:
Convenience function which combines part_init & part_add,
creating a single partition that covers the whole disk.
guestfs_part_set_bootable:
guestfs_part_set_name:
Set various aspects of existing partitions.
guestfs_part_list:
List partitions on a device. This returns a programming-friendly
list of partition structs (in contrast to sfdisk-l which cannot
be parsed).
guestfs_part_get_parttype:
Return the partition table type, eg. "msdos" or "gpt".
The following calls are planned, but not added currently:
guestfs_part_get_bootable
guestfs_part_get_name
guestfs_part_set_type
guestfs_part_get_type

/bin/sh on Debian is a minimal shell called 'dash' which doesn't
support some features we need such as the particular 'function'
syntax used by regressions/test-stringlist.sh, and therefore
this script was failing on Debian.
Change all of these scripts to use #!/bin/bash explicitly to avoid
these sorts of problems.
