Don't require a BIOS boot partition when performing an upgrade (mga#20338)
If we are upgrading a system on a GPT disk and it doesn't currently have a BIOS boot partition, the old system must be using a legacy bootloader (e.g. grub). We support the continued use of legacy bootloaders in an upgrade, so there is no need to insist on a BIOS boot partition in this case.
