Currently ‘find-partition-by-luks-uuid’ is separate from
‘find-partition-by-uuid’.  This is because when looking for a LUKS
mapped device, we know we’re looking specifically for that and nothing
else (this is used in the implementation of ‘luks-device-mapping’);
likewise, when looking for a “real partition”, we know we’re not looking
for a LUKS mapped device.

Thus I think it’s probably best to keep LUKS UUID lookup separate from
file system lookup.

WDYT?  Are there use cases in the installer where this is problematic?
