[PATCH 1/2] partitions: efi: change first partition number from 1 to 0

Traditionally barebox starts partition numbers at 0. This was changed
in bdc3cb54dc to start at 1. This was done to make the parted numbering
consistent to the Linux tool. This breaks boot scripts though which
assume 0 to be the first partition, so change it back.

Fixes: bdc3cb54dc ("partitions: efi: implement partition manipulation support")
