[Bug 286415] bsdconfig / installer requires a root partition in the partitioning tool

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=286415

            Bug ID: 286415
           Summary: bsdconfig / installer requires a root partition in the
                    partitioning tool
           Product: Base System
           Version: 14.2-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: theraven@FreeBSD.org

The ZFS flow in the installer no longer provides a partitioning step. 
Unfortunately, if you try to manually partition with bsdconfig / installer, it
refuses to commit your changes unless there is a filesystem with / as the mount
point.  This prevents you from creating the freebsd-zfs partitions and then
running the ZFS auto flow.  And, indeed, appears to make it impossible to do
*any* partitioning prior to ZFS (the ZFS flow will use entire disks and install
a partition table for them, but has no other options).
