sfdisk: add deprecated --Linux
The sfdisk does not care about compatibility with classic DOS partitioning, and it does not warn about incompatibility with DOS at all. It means that --Linux is default and it's unnecessary to use this option. It's the same situation like with "--unit S", these options are very probably often used in scripts, and these all is default now. So for backward compatibility new sfdisk accepts these options on command line, but prints "option is deprecated" warning message. Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
