[PATCH 03/18] partition: efi: respect DPS_TYPE_FLAG_NO_AUTO flag

From: Ahmad Fatoum <a.fatoum at barebox.org>

The DPS_TYPE_FLAG_NO_AUTO flag indicates that a partition should not be
automatically discovered by type UUID if not directly referenced.

We do auto discovery for barebox env and sate using
cdev_find_child_by_gpt_typeuuid, so teach it to respect that flag.
