those would not get assinged a usage and thus appear in the list

since we cannot do anything with such a  partition, return the usage
'Extended Partition' for these.

This looks like a MBR partitiontype (both the length and the concept of
extended partition seem MBR-related) - Do we want to support MBR disks?
(we do not in the installer and when initializing a new disk)
Any pointer to where this could be needed?

Really meant as an expression of my confusion - am fine if we want to
support this and the patch LGTM.

i mean we don't have to, i just ran into that when installing
on top of debian10 -> pve6 -> pve7

so it might not be that useful...
