This PR converts the UIVM over to being a fully partitioned disk to enable the UIVM to be ran as HVM.

Stop using the pseudo partition disk mounting and use full disk
mounting.  pseudo-partitions are not compatible with HVMs, so this is a
necessary step.  uivm config changes are also needed.
uivm needs to be able to read partitions to be able to boot from a
partitioned disk.
uivm could just use the default from openxt-image-disk.bbclass, but that
doesn't take affect.  read-only-rootfs does APPEND_append = " ro" which
ends up taking precedence of the APPEND ?= setting.  Add an explicit
setting to avoid these schenanigans.
Use the partitioned disk so we can boot as an HVM.
