Bug Description

Swap partitions and boot partitions theoretically have their flag set to "boot" or "swap" respectively. However, for logical partitions, the flag is set to "logical". Therefore, if a swap partition is part of the extended partition, it results in an inconsistent behavior in Subquity and curtin; causing errors during partitioning such as:

        Exception: primary partition cannot have number 7
        primary partition cannot have number 7
