Issue body
### Check existing issues
- [x] I've verified that this request isn't described by any existing issues.
### Request
Describe the feature you'd like to see implemented.
Currently imagecraft only supports GPT partition tables, and even then only a limited number of GUIDs.
Imagecraft should allow `schema: mbr|gpt` and create the right disk image accordingly.
### The problem it solves
Describe the impact your request would have.
Some systems do not support GPT. This is true for both Ubuntu Core and Ubuntu Classic images.
