[parted-devel] [PATCH 2/4] libparted: remove extraneous blkpg add partition ped exception

_blkpg_add_partition was throwing an exception if it failed to add the new
partition, in addition to _disk_sync_part_table throwing one, and then
bailing out.  Instead of bailing out, just log the error for reporting
later and continue.
