Description of problem:

Last partition created using blivet-gui in the underlying disk is treated as first partition on disk.

a. This will completely prevent the user to consume cylinders left un-partitioned during installation.
b. A second thought to resize the last partition during installation will force the user to delete the entire partition scheme (screenshot attached) and redo the partition steps.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

blivet-gui shipped with Fedora-Server-dvd-x86_64-26-Alpha-1.7.iso

Steps to Reproduce:

1. create standard partitions but root(/)
2. create / as last partition. This will make root(/) on /dev/sda1.

Actual results:

first partition label(/dev/xxx1) is assigned to last partition created.

Expected results:

disk partition order should align with the order followed while partitioning a disk.
