block: make partition array dynamic
disk->__part used to be statically allocated to the maximum possible number of partitions. This patch makes partition array allocation dynamic. The added overhead is minimal as only real change is one memory dereference changed to RCU one. This saves both a bit of memory and cpu cycles iterating through unoccupied slots and makes increasing partition limit easier.
