    gpart: Be less picky about GPT Tables in some cases
    
    When we're recoverying a damangae GPT, or when we're restoring a backed
    up partition tables, don't enforce the 4k alignment for start/end LBAs.
    This is useful for 512e/4kn drives when we're creating a new partition
    table or partition. However, when we're trying to fix / restore an old
    partition, we shouldn't force this alignment, since in that case it's
    more important to use the partition table as is than to optimize
    performance by rounding (which isn't required by the standard).
