@GeraldEV Thanks!
@freddy77 @ashwin9390: It should be easy for you to review the diff (== commit 4)!
The changes are minimal and only what has been asked in the review.
I should mention that @GeraldEV mentioned in the description that this depends on #161, which also needed one more review (but that's done also now!).

Changes are good to me, but I would merge the Address comments from PR review
Add support for answerfile control over root & logs filesystem type. Only EXT3 and EXT4 are available and the functionality is declared unsupported.

Squashed the review comments commit, merging! :D |
Add support for EXT4 root and logs partitions on fresh install and upgrade.
Backup and restore is handled by checking the type of the partition being backed-up/restored-to instead of assuming it's EXT3.
This change is intentionally undocumented in doc/answerfile.txt as we are not expecting to support environments which intentionally divert from the default fs type.
This has been tested manually in all ext3/ext4 combinations (e.g. from ext3->ext3, ext3->ext4, etc.) in fresh installs, upgrades, and restores.
A regression test is being introduced into XenRT, see jobs 4087565 & 4088336 and XenRT PR XXX
This PR depends on commit e72687b from #161
