Add mbr setup to setup-disk script running in custom mode

In mode when a user makes custom partition layout it might be very handy to suggest user if he wants to make a system partition to be bootable. If yes then partition should be marked as ‘bootable’ and MBR should be written. Some additional checks might be needed, like is it LVM or RAID partition. In case of RAID a script might write MBR on all RAID members.

If it will look too complicated to implement then the simple solution is to make a final warning to user about making MBR is his responsibility.
